Blumenthal decided to run because he reached out to his representatives with a solution for a problem, and they did not take any action. Sound familiar? He wants to change that and has the experience and knowledge to get it done.

He likes cats. Blumenthal is active in community cat rescues, and is a supporter of Kitty Claws, Little River.

...and veterans and active-duty service members. He's given them free hundreds of hours of free legal representation.
