Tom Houghton, Democratic candidate for Pennsylvania's 16th Congressional District, is a former township supervisor and State Representative for the 13th Legislative District in Pennsylvania.

Tom needs your support to raise the funds necessary to run an effective, winning campaign so he can fight for American familes.

Tom's opponent is a strong supporter of the Tea Party.  He votes with the Tea Party 88% of the time, including being one of the 40 members of Congress who signed the letter that led to the government shut down and the threat of economic collapse.  Tom's opponent will receive huge financial support from the national Tea Party and it's partner organizations.   

Tom is running for Congress because he's tired of the radicalism that has led to gridlock and is rapidly eroding the opportunities that should be afforded to all of us.  Tom will go to Washigton to work hard and get the results that the residents of the 16th District and the American people deserve and expect.

Tom believes in working across party lines to pass common-sense legislation that creates opportunities for a better life by investing in American families.

Building a better life is something that Tom knows about.  Tom was raised by a single mother who was a waitress. It was a real struggle, sometimes even getting by without electricity. That experience made him stronger. From K-12, Tom didn't miss a single day of school because he knew that in this great country, hard work and education were the gateway to opportunity and the keys to a better life.

Through strong public schools, federal student loans and real opportunity, Tom was able to work his way through college and law school. Now, as a husband and father of two he has a great career as a self-employed attorney, and is able to provide for his family.

As a member of Congress, Tom will fight hard for your family, the same way he's fought for his own.

As a former elected official, Tom has a proven track record of working with everyone to get real results for the people he represents.
