I will be voting for Tom Brown for DC Council At-Large in the special election on Tuesday, April 26th.  I am collaborating with Tom to assist youth with HIV/AIDS, teen pregnancy prevention, and relationship education at some of the job training sites that his nonprofit, Training Grounds, Inc. runs.  I see his sincere concern for youth in our city.  He is a concerned father, and I see that he is extending that concern to all of the youth in Washington, DC.

Tom is the only candidate who supports funding abstinence-centered HIV prevention programs.  These programs give parents a genuine choice if they do not want the same old ineffective programs that push condoms taught to their children.
Furthermore, Tom is the only At-Large candidate who believes that marriage is between a man and a woman only.  He also believes that parents need to be informed before minor children can receive an abortion, and that abortions should not be publically funded.  Please see the links below for more information and videos about Tom's positions.

What a candidate believes about the value of strengthening and supporting in tact two parent families tells a lot about how they will govern.  After all, society is an extension of the family.  Tom will be a strong leader with high integrity.  I ask you to cast your At-Large vote on Tuesday for Tom Brown, number 8 on the ballot.

Sincerely,
