Today, we're happy to announce the first round of business executives, small business owners and job creators from all across Texas who have endorsed Tom for U.S. Senate. They understand it will take a political outsider and proven job creator to clean up the economic mess made by the career politicians in Washington.
Job Creators For Leppert enthusiastically support Tom because he is the only candidate in this race who has put forth a bold, comprehensive plan to fix the economy and has the business experience put it into action. Tom has spent over 25 years in the private sector running businesses small and large, balancing budgets, signing both sides of a paycheck, and creating thousands of jobs.
Here is what some members of Job Creators For Leppert have said about Tom:
