He is a member of the American Board of Internal Medicine. He graduated from the University of Connecticut Medical School in 1987.[3] Political careerSherman wrote an op-ed on Seacoastonline.com calling for the New Hampshire legislature to preserve Medicaid expansion so it would continue to cover drug treatment programs for individuals arrested for drug-related offenses.[4] Sherman co-sponsored a bill to ban teenagers from patronizing tanning salons. The bill was passed into law by Governor Maggie Hassan in early June 2015.[5] Sherman ran and was elected to the New Hampshire House of Representatives along with fellow Democrat David Borden for the Rockingham District 24 in 2012. He became a member of the Health, Human Services, & Elderly Affairs committee. He and Borden were reelected in 2014. Sherman has been instrumental in leading state-level implementation of Medicare expansion under the New Hampshire Health Protection Program. As part of the legislature's Health, Human Services, & Elderly Affairs committee and as part of the general vote, he led a commission[6] and later voted for expanding Medicaid to 50,000 state residents.[7] The bill was passed into law by Governor Maggie Hassan on March 27, 2014.[8] As of October 14, 2014, over 20,000 New Hampshire residents had signed up to receive the expanded coverage.[9] Sherman also supported legalizing the use of marijuana for therapeutic purposes, especially for patients medically diagnosed with terminal illnesses and serious conditions. He testified and voted for the medical provisions of the law in March 2013.[10] A law legalizing medical use of marijuana was subsequently passed and went into effect July 25, 2013.[11] Sherman co-sponsored a bill that required hospital technicians to register with a board for health care workers who are not otherwise already licensed or registered and who have access to both drugs and patients. The bill (H.B. 658) also requires hospitals to report disciplinary actions to the board, which could perform its own investigations of wrongdoing.[12] The law went into effect October 1, 2014.[13] Sherman was interviewed for his role in working for cancer prevention as a member of the Next Generation Choices Foundation in Seacoastonline.com on February 28, 2016.[14] PhilanthropyTom Sherman is a founding director of Next Generation Choices Foundation and chairman of the board of directors of LessCancer.org, a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to educating the public about lifestyle changes that could reduce the potential for people to become afflicted with cancer.[15] References1. ^{{cite web| title=Representative Thomas Sherman (d)| url=http://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/house/members/member.aspx?member=377169|website=New Hampshire House of Representatives| accessdate=7 January 2015}} {{New Hampshire State Senators}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Sherman, Tom}}2. ^{{cite web| title=LessCancer Board of Directors| url=http://www.lesscancer.org/board-of-directors/.|website=LessCancer.org|accessdate=7 January 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web| title=Dr. Thomas M.
