A message from Your Councilwoman

I, Councilwoman Rosemary Pino, have proudly served the residents of Clifton since 2014.

I was the first Latina elected to public office in the City of Clifton as Commissioner on the Board of Education and then again in 2018 when I was the first member of an Ethnic minority group to be elected to the Clifton City Council.

Why Do I Tell You This?

I’m not afraid to push for what I believe in
I break barriers and get things done.
I will represent and follow through.

From the Bronx to Clifton: A Journey of Community Leadership!

Rosemary Pino, born in the vibrant borough of the Bronx to Ecuadorian immigrant parents, is one of six children. A homeowner in Clifton and a resident for over 30 years, she has proudly contributed to the fabric of her community.

After completing her bachelor’s degree in Finance from Rutgers University, Rosemary embarked on a career in the finance industry. In the aftermath of the financial turmoil of 2008, she joined the US Treasury Department's Office of the Comptroller of the Currency as a bank examiner. In this role, she played a pivotal part in assessing banks' health and auditing their performance.

Rosemary's journey into politics began unexpectedly, as she recounts being recruited for a Board of Education Commissioner role during what she thought was a job interview. Despite her initial uncertainty, she embraced the challenge, unaware of the political landscape.

During her campaign, she encountered skepticism about campaigning in certain areas of town, which fueled her determination to challenge the status quo. Despite an unsuccessful bid, Rosemary saw a significant increase in voter turnout in traditionally overlooked areas, planting the seed for her future advocacy.

Recognizing the power of community engagement and education, she continued her efforts, eventually winning her seat on the Board of Education in 2013. This experience cemented her commitment to empowering her community and advocating for inclusivity and participation in civic life.
