Joe Penland Sr. (“Joe from Texas”)
Joe Penland Sr., known as “Joe from Texas,” is a self-made businessman, inventor, and national advocate for saving Social Security. Having personally benefited from all three parts of the Social Security system, he understands the program as both a lifeline and a promise earned by working Americans.
Joe began his career in the 1960s as an oilfield worker, shipyard laborer, and ironworker. With a $2,750 loan, he built his first ten crane mats in his mother’s backyard, launching a family-owned company that became one of the world’s leading manufacturers of ground protection systems.
Over more than fifty years in the mat industry, Joe developed multiple patented designs and built his company into an industry leader. Through JoeFromTexas.com, he now works to educate Americans, protect Social Security, and encourage citizens to help secure a stronger future for the next generation.
