Tom Sgouros for Treasurer: Run, Tom, Run!


My good friend Tom Sgouros is running for Treasurer of Rhode Island, and he needs your support.

I've known Tom for nearly 20 years, and he's one of the smartest guys I know.  More importantly, he's one of the most thoughtful guys I know.

Tom thinks deeply about the issues, weighs all of the angles, and makes truly informed decisions.

For the last 6 years, Tom has been writing a newsletter/blog about RI Policy, entitled the RI Policy Reporter. Take a look at any one of those issues, and it will become clear to you that Tom knows his stuff.  His latest columns and thoughts are up online at http://www.whatcheer.net

I've worked with Tom on a number of projects over the last 18 years, and his depth of knowledge, his integrity, and his ability to get things done all make it clear to me that Tom would make a great Treasurer of Rhode Island, and would make the state a better place to live.  He just has to get elected.

I urge you to support Tom in his race-- you can make online donations, sign up to volunteer, find out more about his policies, and find out more about him at http://www.tomfortreasurer.com
