With gas prices in Tennessee averaging a staggering $4.13 a gallon, working families are stretching every single dollar just to make ends meet.

When I proposed freezing our state gas tax to help Tennesseans at the pump, Marsha Blackburn and state Republicans mocked it as a "gimmick." Now that Donald Trump is floating the exact same idea at the federal level, where do they stand?

We need consistent leadership that fights for working families, not politicians who change their tunes based on what Trump does. I’m running for Governor to lower costs and deliver for working families. Full stop.

Freeze the gas tax NOW.

The Chattanooga Bridge Brigade stands in solidarity with our neighbors in Memphis, and all of our Black neighbors losing their voice and vote.
When Black voters are disenfranchised through gerrymandering, their communities often receive less attention, fewer resources, and weaker political advocacy. Issues such as education, healthcare, housing, public safety, and economic investment can go ignored because elected officials are not held accountable to those communities. This creates a cycle where marginalized voices continue to be excluded from decisions that directly impact their lives.

A healthy democracy depends on fair representation. Ending racial gerrymandering is not about partisan advantage; it is about protecting the integrity of elections and ensuring every citizen’s voice carries equal weight.

Please, stand up and fight for your neighbors. 👊

Right now, as grocery prices keep rising, more and more families are feeling the strain of simply putting food on the table.

But in the middle of it all, something powerful is happening—neighbors are showing up for neighbors. 💛

Across our community, people are quietly stocking pantries and community fridges, donating what they can so that anyone in need can take what they need. No questions, no judgment—just care, dignity, and compassion.

It’s a reminder that even in hard times, we’re not alone. Small acts—an extra can of soup, a bag of rice, a few fresh items—can mean everything to someone else.

If you’re able, you can be part of this:
• Drop off a few non-perishable items at a neighborhood pantry
• Help restock a local fridge when you see it running low
• Donate to groups supporting food access in your area
• Share this message so more people can lend a hand

This is what community looks like—people looking out for each other in simple, meaningful ways. ❤️

RIG MAPS - LOSE DEMOCRACY

The GOP is holding our democracy over the edge of a cliff.
WE HAVE TO SAVE IT!
Call your Governor!
Call your Senator!
Call your representatives.
EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Do not stay quiet about this.
It IS that serious.

Friday the Chattanooga Bridge Brigade stood out in honor of Earth day with:

TINY HANDS OFF OUR LANDS

National parks and forests protect biodiversity, preserve natural beauty, support recreation, and safeguard resources—vital to America’s environment, economy, and future generations. They must be protected. 👊

On May 1st, the Chattanooga Bridge Brigade stands in solidarity with the National Strike—because we believe in showing up for one another, especially when it matters most.

As we raise our voices for change, we’re also taking action right here at home. Our “Fridge Brigade” Pantry Stocking Fund helps keep refrigerators and pantries filled for our neighbors across the Chattanooga area—ensuring that no one is left without the basics they need to get through the day.

Solidarity isn’t just a word—it’s care in motion. It’s making sure families have food, communities stay strong, and no one is forgotten.

If you’re able, please consider donating to support this effort. Every contribution goes directly toward stocking food where it’s needed most.

Together, we can stand up and show up. ❤️
