This information is provided by the candidate

Congressman Pitts has spent his entire life serving his community and his country. He was a decorated officer in the Air Force, serving three tours and flying 116 combat missions. He was a high school math and science teacher and basketball coach. He was a highly respected state legislator and is now our U.S. Congressman. Constituents and colleagues know him as a workhorse, not a show horse. "I'm not interested in running for higher office," he says. "I want to use this job my neighbors have given me to make America safer and stronger so that no one has to be afraid of losing their health insurance, losing their home, or losing their investments."
