There are many reasons why I’m fighting for a better Memphis, and a better Tennessee. But for me, these three are the most important.
A great weekend of activism up in Nashville supporting @aftynbehn.bsky.social and her campaign for TN Congress!
Election Day is December 2nd, and if you’d like to help, I encourage you to reach out to the campaign! Remote volunteer work is available. I’ll throw the graphic in the first comment.

Tennessean: “Local democrats rally around Aftyn Behn…”
And some random Memphian the middle of the picture.
Had a great time traveling to Nashville to support Aftyn Behn in flipping a congressional seat.
Let’s get better representation for everyone in our state!

It really shouldn’t take a court order to get our government to feed the hungry, but here we are.
There has been enough agreement on both sides of the aisle to get this done, now hopefully the President and his administration will get back to the work of serving the people.

Vermont is doing its job.
Tennessee has the funds to extend SNAP benefits through the government shutdown, while House/Senate Dems are calling for a Special Session to get it done.
Gov. Lee, however, has decided feeding folks isn’t a priority.
It’s politics over people.

Per capita over the last 15 years, Tennessee has lost the most rural hospitals due to our Republican State Legislature’s refusal to expand Medicaid. The loss of 9 additional hospitals would be devastating.

The greatest gift this life has given me is the opportunity to be a father to my girls.
Here’s to all the dads out there, where the kids are yours by birth or circumstance, brightening the lives of their children.
Happy Father’s Day!
