Our West Tennessee Conservative Values
Fight For Our Agricultural Community
Reduce harmful regulations and red tape so that our farmers can earn a great living and keep food on our tables.
Recruit and Help Create Great, New Jobs
West Tennessee is a special place with a vibrant workforce ready for new opportunities. Let’s continue to recruit new job creators to our community and sustain an environment where exisiting businesses can grow and hire.
Strengthen Educational Opportunities
Our students need to be ready for life after school. That starts with parents being engaged and consulted in their children’s education. Our amazing teachers need to have the resources and support to do a great job in the classroom.
Keep Taxes Low and Government Small
West Tennesseans want to keep more of their hard-earned money in their wallets. Let’s keep taxes low and predictable. And we’ll work together to keep government within it’s means and in the confines of it’s constitutional responsibilities.
Defend Local Law Enforcement, Not Defund Them
We need to support our law enforcement officers that put the lives at risk daily to protect this community. Liberals may want to defund them, but we’ll make sure they have the funding to carry out their duties.
Protect The Most Vulnerable
We have a responsibility to fight for those that cannot fight for themselves. Let’s protect the unborn and ensure that they have the chance to live a life of purpose.
Stand For Our Constitutional Rights
No one will fight harder to protect our Constitutional 2nd Amendment rights.
