Tom Latham's Blurbs |
About me:
I was born and raised in Alexander, Iowa, a town of 168 people. I am one of the owners of Latham Seeds, a soybean facility founded by my father that is located just outside of Alexander. My wife Kathy and I have three adult children and four grandchildren.
I have served in the United States House of Representatives since 1995. I am a member of, and the only Iowan on, the powerful House Appropriations Committee.
I sit on the Appropriations Subcommittees for Homeland Security, Agriculture, and Energy & Water.
I serve on several Congressional Task Forces, including the Speaker’s Task Force for a Drug-Free America, the House Prescription Drug Action Leadership Team, and last year was named to the Congressional Task Force for Affordable Natural Gas.
My daily goal is changing the way Washington works and changing the work that Washington does.
I was raised on my family's farm with the Iowa traditions of hard work, community service, and strong values.
I work in Congress for the promotion of individual liberty, economic opportunity, personal responsibility, and a smaller and smarter government.
I believes in America, Iowa and her people. I can always see a great future in a nation that protects individual freedom and responsibility over that of an intrusive federal government that spends beyond its means. And, if we hold to these values, America's greatest days are yet to be seen.
