Ball announces formation of 'The Putnam Pioneers'

Prior to being sworn in for his second term, State Assemblyman Greg Ball (R, C, I – Patterson), announced the formation of a new political action committee known as the Putnam Pioneers.

This ‘by invitation only’ organization is committed to getting serious energy security candidates elected throughout the Hudson Valley.

The committee has already recruited over 40 committed Republicans, Conservatives, elected officials, successful business owners, labor leaders and even Democrats throughout the Hudson Valley. Each member has made a $2500 financial commitment to help recruit credible candidates who espouse a simple philosophy of ending dependence on foreign oil, building a renewable green energy infrastructure in the United States, and eliminating taxes sales taxes on natural ga and biofuels.

The founding members of the Pioneers, several of whom include rising stars in the state party and local officials who have run efficient races, are working a blueprint for success that will provide financial training, strategic assistance, media consulting, research, staff training and campaign tools to other candidates.
