About our speaker:
Representative Tommy Brann has been a strong advocate for small businesses since the age of 19 when he opened his first restaurant –Tommy Brann's Sizzling Steaks and Sports Grille in Wyoming. It was at that time, that Rep. Brann began creating jobs for others.

He currently is owner and operator of Brann’s Restaurants, which has several locations across Michigan including the same first restaurant, in Wyoming, that has been open for 45 years. When not in Lansing, you will still find Rep Brann working at that original location.

Rep. Brann authored a book titled, Mind Your Own Business, which is about small business lessons and free enterprise. The book also covers all of the drama and hard work of owning a business – as well as the lack of pats on the back, but a lot of pats on the wallet.  He also wrote a song called, Risk, which is about a girl that buys a restaurant and the struggles she encounters along the way.

Rep. Brann understands how to manage money and balance a budget. He supports small businesses and works effortlessly to ensure Lansing spends our tax dollars efficiently.

He is a strong supporter of law enforcement and believes we need to set aside funding for additional law enforcement to respond to emergencies in our communities and to problem areas within our state.  By pro-actively increasing our available law enforcement teams to help to root-out crime. Additionally, increasing our law enforcement teams will offer more protection for our families and homes. 

Rep. Brann is an advocate for our children and wants to ensure our children have opportunities to open their own businesses and create jobs. Through his education pursuits, our children will have the opportunity to learn about Free Enterprise in classroom courses allowing the next generation to live the American dream. He also believes that mentorship is key to struggling students.
