The Alabama Farmers Federation announced Friday its endorsement of Republican Aaron Thomas for Alabama House District 10 in Madison County.
“Aaron Thomas is a hard-working business owner and a conservative,” said Charles Butler, president of the Madison County Farmers Federation. “He knows what it’s like to work with people to make a difference and a payroll. He will take that knowledge and experience to Montgomery and represent us well.”
As a local restaurant owner, Thomas said he is experienced at providing jobs and economic opportunities to the people of Madison County and North Alabama. His four local restaurants include one where he started his career as a 16 year-old.
Thomas is an Eagle Scout, a board member for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, a member of the Rotary Club and serves on the Madison County Republican Executive Committee.
“I am appreciative of the Farmers Federation’s endorsement,” said Thomas. “I can think of no harder-working conservative group that I would like to work with to make District 10 a better place.”
Thomas and his wife, Amy, have two daughters.
The Alabama Farmers Federation is the state’s largest farm organization with more than 360,000 member families. It uses a grassroots approach to select candidates, relying on Alabama FarmPAC endorsements from county Farmers Federation boards of directors for local elections.
