"Leading the Way" Speaker Series
Event Sponsors
Presenting the 2018 Bay Area Chamber of Commerce "Leading the Way" Speaker Series.
State Representative Tom Leonard is Michigan’s 75th Speaker of the House and currently the youngest Speaker in the country. Elected Speaker by his colleagues for the 2017-18 term, Leonard and his Republican team have kept Michigan on a pro-growth, pro-family, pro-jobs path forward. He has led historic reforms in our teacher pension system, cut our taxes and worked across party lines to fight for lower insurance rates.
Prior to his election to the Michigan House of Representatives in 2012, Leonard was an Assistant Attorney General and a prosecutor in Genesee County, where he prosecuted some of Michigan’s most dangerous criminals, while assigned to the Special Crimes Division in Flint.
Leonard earned his Bachelor’s degree in History and Spanish from the University of Michigan and received his Juris Doctorate from the Michigan State University School of Law, where he was the graduating class president. He also earned the Ralph M. Freeman Scholarship, which is annually awarded to the student who most exemplifies the Rules of Professional Conduct by treating others with courtesy and respect.
Leonard serves the 93rd House District, which encompasses Clinton County and portions of Gratiot County. Tom and his wife Jenell live in DeWitt Twp. with their daughter Hannah, who will be two in September.Date and Time
