U.S. Congress District 7

Tom Barrett is back and running in the U.S. House District 7 for a second time, but this time it is an open seat due to Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin running for U.S. Senate. With the political makeup of this district and it being an open seat, Michigan’s 7th District will be one of the most expensive Congressional races in the entire country. Prior to his involvement in politics, Tom joined the United States Army out of high school. Tom’s service in the military continued for 22 years, serving in the Iraq War, Guantanamo Bay, Kuwait and the Korean DMZ, and logging in more than 1,000 hours in some of the most advanced helicopters in the world.

Known as a fiscal hawk, he opposed all taxpayer funded corporate welfare, including the programs now funding Chinese-owned factories, and fought for tax cuts for all Michiganders.

$24.6 million has already been spent on his campaign and recent polls show this race leaning slightly in favor of ABC Endorsed candidate, Tom Barrett. Republican’s winning this race would be a huge pickup on the path to House majority in 2025. 
