Expand all | Collapse all

I’m an ordinary Chicagoan with exceptional zeal who broke the norm, building a better life with the resources I had at hand. I am a successful businessman with vast experience in leading diverse teams to a common goal of success, proud father of two and devoted husband.

A natural entrepreneur, I earned my first money at age 8 selling soda on a neighborhood street corner. I started my first business, Lombardi Trucking, by age 22. Presently, I own and operate Chicago's premiere digital marketing company and runs multiple internet companies.

Born and bred on Chicago's southwest side, I went to nearby St. Laurence High School and later attended Northwestern Business College.

As the next Congressman, I will use my business skills and my love for this country to positive changes. You can count on me to secure our borders, back the blue, improve the economy so wages can increase, help small businesses, and protect our Constitutional Rights.

For more details, please visit LombardiforCongress.com

  • Secure the borders
  • Use business skills to improve economy and fix nation’s finances
  • Strengthen public safety and stop the dangerous radical agenda that puts criminals ahead of victim
Strong borders are essential - Without strong borders, we do not have a nation

Law and order are to be respected - Support law enforcement, first responders and the great work they do every day in maintaining peace, safety, health and unity throughout America.

Small businesses must survive - Small business is the backbone of our economy

Protect our Constitutional Rights - Our Rights are being stripped away

Control Federal Spending - We need to put government spending on a diet so we don’t go bankrupt like Greece. Every time Congress passes a huge spending bill we are robbing from our children’s future. This debt is too big from our generation to pay down so we are putting this burden on them. As a father, I strongly believe that this is wrong.

Education - Unfortunately, schools are spending more time focused on indoctrinating our children than teaching them to read and write. I oppose the teaching for critical race theory

Term Limits - Our founding fathers did not want a political class to govern us.

Affordable Health Care - Health care insurance costs should not be exceeding mortgage payments

Jesus Christ has been important in guiding my life and my values. I try to live by his words and deeds.

Ronald Reagan showed us peace through strength. He was the original Make America Great Again. His positive vision is what our country needs right now.
Honesty, integrity, leadership, caring, and humility.
I listen to and try to understand people.

I have signed the term limits pledge, therefore, holding office it is not about a career for me, rather it is about representing the People.

Simple but often overlooked, represent the People who elected you.
I would like to be known as someone who loved his country and worked tirelessly for the People of whom he was elected by.
The fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989 was a pivotal event in world history which marked the falling of the Iron Curtain and the start of the fall of communism in Eastern and Central Europe.

I was just 12 years old, but it opened my eyes to how great we 'have it' in the United States.
My first real job was installing radios and car alarms all different make and model vehicles. My employment lasted a little over a year. I found early on that working for yourself net more money and allowed more freedom.
The Bible

As it's said, there is nothing new under the Sun that is not in the Bible.
Captain America, Iron Man or Superman. They all have a duty to protect the people.

Captain America protects American values; 'protecting American values' is missing from the heart of many in Congress.

Iron Man is transparent, brilliant and always comes through.

Superman loves humanity, even when humanity didn't love him. Nonetheless, Superman served a higher purpose.
Workaholic. I continue to learn how to balance work and family.
U.S. House of Representatives is the people’s House.

Unfortunately, with this professional pack of career politicians, it is the House of special interest. That’s why I support term limits.
No, our founding fathers never intended for the people to be represented by politicians.
Case in point, the current status of politics in our country.
Law and order are to be respected

Control Federal Spending

Protect our Constitutional Rights

Helping small businesses recover from the pandemic

Affordable healthcare for all Americans

Immigration

Election integrity - ID voters for proof of citizenship

Removing Leftist indoctrination from public schools




Yes. It keeps elected representatives responsive to people. For example, many incumbents are pushing the defund the police movement and teaching critical race theory. In a little more than a year, we can throw them out of office for going way too radical.
I support term limits on Congress.

Our founding fathers did not want a political class to govern us. They wanted regular people to serve and then go back to their community. Unfortunately, we have a ruling class right now. They don’t live by the same rules as we do. Furthermore, they don’t listen to the people.

They are more concerned about power than serving the people. As the next Congressman, I will support the legislation to create term limits on Congress.
Yes. During the lockdowns, a man was looking to sell his family's hot water heater in order to feed his family. He owned a small restaurant.

We can do better!
I'm know for random one-liner dad jokes; fun, creative and spontaneous.

There is no way to say I have a favorite or a go-to, rather, I use what 'fits' the moment.
I do not.

We need Congressmen and women with better negation skills. That is how we will save America from the Left.
