Tom Tiffany, a lifelong Wisconsinite, is running to be the next Governor of Wisconsin. He is a politician and businessman. The Republican is a member of the United States House of Representatives, and has represented Wisconsin's 7th congressional district since 2020.

Tiffany's website says, “From serving as a Town of Little Rice supervisor to representing Wisconsin in Madison and Congress, Tom has fought for Wisconsin at every level of government. He knows how to make government work for the People, not the elite. He has balanced budgets, secured our borders, and never backed down when it came to putting Wisconsinites first.”

Tiffany grew up on a dairy farm and attended the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. He and his wife, Chris, later spent about two decades running a small business in Wisconsin's Northwoods.e’: Gary Swing, Green Party candidate running for Arizona seat, wants to abolish nuclear weaponsPublic sources give little away about Tiffany's parents other than their family dairy-farm background and there is no authoritative single figure stating his current personal net worth.

Tom Tiffany's stance on various issues Tiffany's economic program is based on cutting taxes and limiting government spending. He has proposed freezing property taxes and cutting income taxes by 10% for people earning $150,000 or less and returning Wisconsin's budget surplus to taxpayers.

He also wants to reduce housing and childcare costs by cutting regulations and preventing large investors from buying single-family homes. His position on energy is also crucial given the increasing electricity demand from data centres.

Tiffany now says Wisconsin should not become "America's Data land" and wants an end to taxpayer subsidies for data centres, local communities to have the final say and protections for farmland, water and utility ratepayers.d transparency’: Anna Eskamani, Democrat running for Mayor of Orlando, on her vision for the cityOn AI more broadly, his position is less about regulating the technology itself but controlling the infrastructure and economic implications around it.

He has criticized policies that could increase electricity costs while supporting continued use of existing energy sources and new nuclear technologies. Trade has become a more difficult issue for him. Tiffany has supported Trump's tariffs, including those affecting Canada, while acknowledging that higher energy and consumer costs are a problem. In a recent PBS Wisconsin interview, he argued that tariffs are largely a federal matter, but that Wisconsin's governor can respond by cutting state taxes and reducing utility costs.

The Iran war has similarly complicated his campaign. Tiffany has said it is time to "wrap up" the conflict, while acknowledging that he previously voted against measures that would have directed Trump to end the military engagement. He has argued that Middle Eastern instability has contributed to higher gas prices and that greater U.S. energy production is part of the answer. Tiffany is therefore offering Wisconsin a very different conservative proposition: lower taxes, more energy production, fewer regulations and greater rural influence.
