Reason for Seeking Public Office:

Tom Heck is running for United States Senate because he, like his fellow Americans, has had enough! Tom is committed to making things better for all Americans. Tom has a passion for making a difference. His overarching goal has always been to improve things and to leave things better than he found them for those he has served. Tom has always been committed to one day serving as an elected official and using his training, education, and military and pubic service experience to make a difference on a broader, national scale.

Tom brings solid leadership skills and the resolve to advocate to make systems work better for people and the communities in which they live. He is committed to speaking up and taking action for citizens. Tom has always demonstrated the courage to tell those in key positions not what they want to hear but what they need to hear to get the job done right. Tom is not afraid to challenge the status-quo, including "telling the emperor, he has no clothes!" Tom's a tough but fair negotiator and someone who is passionate about finding better ways and pushing the peoples' representatives to run government like a business. His relentless pursuit of getting the right things done for the right reasons is needed in America today as we face some of the most daunting challenges our country has ever seen.

Our career politicians focus more on getting reelected than correcting our nation's course to get it back on track for the better. Tom believes in term limits for all elected officials and will limit himself as well as initiate legislation to limit all Congressional and Senatorial representatives to two terms.

If you believe, as Tom does, that America must realign our priorities to include addressing and reducing the American debt, ensuring the freedoms our Founding Fathers intended all Americans to enjoy, ensuring the American dream, and keeping all Americans safe to pursue the American dream, then Tom needs your help and support. Please consider helping Tom's campaign, whether with a financial contribution or with your time and energy.

Like most voters, I am tired of seeing career politicians elected who talk one way and vote another. Only reason I can get why we keep doing this is that we don't have the right choice. So I am running to give Nevada voters a choice between Career Politicians and a true conservative who will vote conservative. That's me! TOM Heck
