Dudley will visit the New York City borough of Queens on November 18 to meet with leaders in business as well as the nonprofit and government sectors.

Specifically, the trip will include meetings with Queens Borough President-Elect Melinda Katz and leadership at HANAC, before delivering a speech at Queens College on national and regional economic conditions. The trip concludes with a roundtable discussion with Asian business leaders and a tour of the Steinway & Sons piano factory.
