Joe Pinion is an advocate, entrepreneur, and Political News Commentator. Throughout his life, Joe has witnessed both the power of opportunity and the pernicious impact of government-driven neglect. Joe, born and raised in Yonkers, NY by his mother and grandmother, graduated from Horace Mann High School. A Standout Student-Athlete, he was recruited to play football at Colgate University, where he was a 2-year Varsity Letter winner and a Member of the 2003 team that finished 15-1 and played in the I-AA National Championship. Joe helped integrate health services with community engagement to spearhead a bridge grant program designed to provide gap funding for children within the community to improve college accessibility. Joe experienced first-hand the government failing at one of its most fundamental obligations to protect our most vulnerable when he lost his 100-year-old grandmother who died of COVID, alone in a nursing home. Today, Joe is running for U.S. Senate because our state and our country are in trouble. For too long, career politicians like Chuck Schumer have failed the 99%, choosing instead to serve their political cronies and own self interests. In Chuck Schumer’s rise to power and fame as leader of the Senate, he left the rest of us behind choosing to serve a s loyal leader of the extreme radicals in Washington rather than side with us.

His work with climate change and healthcare are really inspiring because it seems like a lot of politicians don't care about these problems. We also like that he is Pro-choice which means that he will not prevent women and girls from an abortion. Schumer does this because he states, " we want to preserve a woman’s right to choose with Roe and all its protections.” Pinion does support our views, therefore we would not endorse him.]]> 2022-11-02 12:41:16 UTC https://padlet.com/joselinet4/22tx39ccu5i7mcjn/wish/2366585100 joselinet4 https://padlet.com/joselinet4/22tx39ccu5i7mcjn/wish/2366585101 Example: How would Hochul winning the NY Governor help the Democratic party overall?]]> 2022-11-02 12:41:16 UTC https://padlet.com/joselinet4/22tx39ccu5i7mcjn/wish/2366585101 joselinet4 https://padlet.com/joselinet4/22tx39ccu5i7mcjn/wish/2366585102 The similarly from Governor election and this election is that both form different Political party and they stand helping to New York state, and have the indeed resources to New Yorkers.
