Jason J. McGuire serves as the President and CEO of New York Families Foundation and its affiliated organization, New York Families Action. Mr. McGuire has been on staff with New York Families since 2007 and has been integral to the organization’s continued growth and impact.

McGuire is a passionate defender of Christian principles, including the sanctity of life, the sacredness of marriage, the centrality of religious freedom, and the need for a more just and merciful society. He fervently believes these principles can be lived only when the hearts of men and women turn to God. A gifted and accomplished public speaker, Mr. McGuire preaches and teaches at churches and conferences across the state and the nation. He is also frequently called upon by media outlets for his expertise on New York state government and public policy. His radio broadcasts can be heard on Christian stations throughout New York, and his e-mails inform tens of thousands of grassroots Christian activists. Locally and nationally, Mr. McGuire is widely recognized as a key leader in the pro-life and pro-family movements.

Because of his convictions, McGuire drew the ire of New York State Attorney General Letitia James. As a result of Ms. James’ lawfare, in 2025 Jason served 53 days of intermittent incarceration. He knows something of the cost of following one’s faith, regardless of the repercussions. 

Mr. McGuire attended Davis College in Johnson City, New York, and holds a Bachelor of Theology from Andersonville Theological Seminary in Camilla, Georgia. Prior to his employment with New York Families, McGuire served as Pastor of the Ingleside Christian Church in Naples, New York. He and his wife, Lorenne, were married in 1996 and have been blessed with four children, three of whom live with them and one of whom lives with Jesus today.
