Who is Senator Thom Tillis?

Thom has served as the junior United States Senator from North Carolina since 2015.

He was elected to the North Carolina House of Representatives as a Republican in 2006, and Speaker in 2011.

Then in 2014, he was elected to the United States Senate and was reelected in 2020.

His victory over Democratic Sen. Kay Hagan in 2014 helped the GOP take control of the Senate and his reelection after narrowly defeating Democratic challenger Cal Cunningham in 2020 in what became the most expensive U.S. Senate race ever.

As speaker of the state House of Representatives, he led Republicans on their conservative efforts to block the expansion of Medicaid, restrict abortion rights, tighten voting requirements, and ban same-sex marriage.

During his time in the Senate, he has repeatedly voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act, proposed a 15-year pathway to citizenship for undocumented youth, and has continued to deny climate change.

On March 29, 2021, he announced that he has prostate cancer and will undergo surgery in North Carolina for treatment.

His cancer was detected early. He said in a statement: “I am in the hands of outstanding medical professionals and expect to make a full recovery.”
