Who is Thomas Golebiewski?

I first came to the State of Maine in the summer of 1990 when my family moved to the town of Cumberland. I graduated from Greely High School in 1996, and from The Pennsylvania State University in 2002 with a Bachelor's Degree in Management Science & Information Systems.

Soon after I graduated from college, I returned to Maine and began working in the Freeport branch of the Tower Hill Insurance Group based in Gainesville, Florida.

Early in 2004, I accepted a transfer to the main office in Gainesville where I spent nearly 3 years. During the time I was in Florida, the Freeport branch closed and the remaining employees went their separate ways.

Because my wife and I knew that we wanted to raise our children in Maine, I resigned from Tower Hill in the fall of 2006 and returned to Maine.

I currently work for a small business based in North Yarmouth, providing computer services for clients in the insurance industry.

In addition to pursuing my career, much of my time is spent raising our two young sons and finding creative ways to enable my wife to remain a stay-at-home mom.

Why am I running for the State Senate?

I am running for the Maine State Senate because I believe that there is not enough representation of ordinary Mainers in Augusta. As a husband and father trying to support two small children and my stay-at-home wife, I understand very well the damage being done to Maine families by politicians and bureaucrats in Augusta.

There is something very wrong when a family requires two incomes just to survive.

I am running for the Senate because our state is in dire straits. Not only do we need dramatic changes in leadership, we also need dramatically new ideas about how government ought to function and what its purpose ought to be.

More of the same is simply not an answer.
