Timmy Dooley has served as a senator since 2020, and is the Fianna Fáil Seanad Spokesperson for Climate Action, Communication Networks & Transport. He has also served as a TD from 2007 to 2020 where he was the spokesman on Transport, Tourism and Sport before moving to Climate Action and Communications.

I’m running to continue my work for the people of Clare in the Oireachtas. I have a proven track record of hard work and I want to deliver again for this constituency. One of my key priorities is to improve the delivery of hospital care in Clare and the Midwest.

On a national level, I believe one of the greatest challenges we have is addressing climate change. The recent election in the US may yet pose a very serious threat to our economic output and will require careful attention over the coming months. Inflation is making the cost of living a major burden for many families and putting home ownership beyond the reach of too many, so it needs to be addressed.

First speech, if re-elected, will be on Hospital care in the Midwest and Clare in particular.
