Biography & Current Office
Background & current office
Glenn “GT” Thompson is a Republican representative from Pennsylvania’s 15th Congressional District. Congress.gov records House service beginning in 2009, first from Pennsylvania’s former 5th District and, after redistricting, from the 15th District.
The House Agriculture Committee identifies Thompson as its chairman. In 2026 he led the committee’s work on H.R. 7567, the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, a five-year farm-bill package covering agriculture, nutrition, conservation and rural policy.
The Agriculture Committee reported that H.R. 7567 passed the House on April 30, 2026 by a 224-200 vote, including support from 14 Democrats. Those vote totals and Thompson’s chairmanship are legislative facts; policy arguments for or against the package remain distinct from this editorial biography.
