ABOUT TOMMY

Growing up in Elroy instilled in Tommy the small-town values of hard work, honesty, integrity, and personal responsibility. The son of a grocer, his first job was polishing eggs in his father's store at the age of six. Those values define Tommy and they represent the core conservative principles he will use to restore America.

– Tommy Thompson


OUR FAMILIES ARE HURTING
 
America is in trouble. Each day our great nation becomes mired in more burdensome regulations, more and higher taxes, and more debt and spending. Wall Street bailouts, crony capitalism, and failed stimulus bills are crippling our nation.

Tommy refuses to allow our children and grandchildren to inherit a nation that is less prosperous, less competitive, and less free.
