Brinkman joins the race for 2nd Congressional District

Cincinnati, OH - State Representative Tom Brinkman today filed a notice with the Federal Election Commission that he is a candidate for Ohio's 2nd Congressional District.

In his seven-year career as a State Representative, Brinkman was twice voted "Most Principled" legislator by members of the media, the Governor's staff, and his own colleagues in the House.

"It will be my goal to earn the same honor in Washington D.C.," Brinkman said.

Brinkman's record also includes winning the Family First "Champion" Award for his leadership on pro-family issues, including legislation promoting adoption and other pro-life causes, his efforts to make higher education more affordable for families, and his work defending the institution of marriage.

But perhaps his most well-known achievement, even among Democrats and environmentalists, was his leadership in eliminating the highly unpopular "E-Check" program.

"I promised to eliminate E-Check, and when I got to Columbus, I delivered on that promise. I will represent Ohioans in Washington as I have for eight years in Ohio, by pushing for common sense in government."

Brinkman takes his job as a representative of the people, and his promises to his constituents very seriously. Over the span of his seven-year career as a State Representative, he has maintained an active presence within the community and has never voted for a tax increase.

Tom Brinkman, age 50, a lifelong resident of Ohio's 2nd Congressional District, resides in Mt. Lookout with his wife and six children. He is currently serving his fourth term in the Ohio House of Representatives.

My district. Not a Ron Paul Republican/Libertarian in my opinion. His views on lower taxes are good, but it stops there. More like Huckabee with lower taxes instead of a fair tax.

Hmmm. When he challenged Schmidt in the primary last time, Dr. Paul endorsed him, his PAC gave him money, and Brinkman pledged to join Dr. Paul's Liberty Caucus. I know the two of them know and like each other. I volunteered on Brinkman's races when I could.

(Oh, great name, btw. I'm back in Chabot's district for the holidays. Is there an event or anything here over the next week or so? An anti-Fed rally Sunday perhaps?)

Hmmm... didn't know about the past Paul support. Don't get me wrong. I voted for Brinkman in the last primary and probably will again. As I said previously he gets his lower tax message across, but then he focuses on legislating morality and other pet projects (education) which don't exactly match a limited govt stance. Hence, my Huckabee comment.

Not sure about a rally. Won't everyone be watching the Bengals/Browns game?

While Tom's not explicitly said he's endorsed Dr. Paul (good reasons for him not to endorse anyone if he wants to beat Schmidt), he has been emailing with me and Josh and others news about Dr. Paul.
