THE JOURNEY
Born and raised in the heart of the Big Apple, Jason Murillo grew up in Manhattan’s Lower East Side, where he witnessed firsthand both the strength of his community and the dramatic changes reshaping the city he loves.
From a young age, Jason’s family instilled in him the values of hard work, personal responsibility, faith, and service to others. He attended local public schools in District 27, where he learned not only the importance of educational excellence but also the resilience and determination required to succeed in one of the most competitive cities in the world.
Living and working in the community he calls home, Jason has seen the impact of rising costs, public safety concerns, struggling small businesses, and families feeling left behind by political leadership that no longer listens. Those experiences shaped his commitment to step forward and fight for a better direction.
Jason’s diverse professional background — spanning advocacy, community organizing, media, politics, small business ownership, and public service — has given him a well-rounded and practical understanding of the fiscal and policy challenges facing New York State. He understands how government decisions affect everyday New Yorkers because he has lived those realities alongside his neighbors.
Rooted in the Lower East Side and driven by a deep love for Manhattan, Jason Murillo is committed to bringing common-sense, community-first, family-first leadership back to Albany — because he believes our neighborhoods deserve representation that reflects their values, their struggles, and their hopes for the future.
