Tom Umberg spent his career convicting corrupt politicians, protecting working families from corporate fraud, and building a business from the ground up.
Now he’s running for the Board of Equalization to bring that same accountability to California’s tax system.

Accountability You Can Trust. Leadership that Delivers.
The State Board of Equalization touches the life of every Californian. It oversees property tax assessments for homeowners across our region. It ensures utilities and major corporations are assessed accurately, so local communities get every dollar they’re owed. It administers the alcohol and insurance tax.

Tom Umberg has spent his career doing exactly what the BOE demands: holding powerful institutions accountable, protecting public funds from fraud and abuse, and enforcing the law without fear or favor.
