About Congressman Smucker:

Lloyd Smucker wants to reignite the American Dream. As a senior member of the Ways and Means Committee and vice chair of the Budget Committee, Smucker champions policies that make it possible for every person to pursue their American Dream, including increased economic opportunity for everyone, reining in Washington’s out-of-control spending, and providing regulatory relief to small businesses so they can expand and create jobs.

Rep. Smucker is fighting to support America’s free enterprise system, to expand apprenticeships and technical education opportunities for students, and help hardworking Americans save for retirement.

Prior to being elected to Congress, Rep. Smucker owned and operated the Smucker Company for 25 years until 2008, and grew the small business to eventually employ more than 150 people.

He served two terms in the Pennsylvania State Senate where he chaired the Committee on Education. In that capacity, he pioneered reforms to increase accountability in education spending and worked to ensure Pennsylvania students had access to quality education. Rep. Smucker led the charge to hold elected officials accountable by proposing reforms to the ethics guidelines. As a member of the Appropriations Committee, he made it a priority to rein in spending and built a reputation as an independent-minded conservative who seeks creative solutions to complex problems.

He lives in West Lampeter Township with his wife.
