TVA was built to lift this region out of poverty. Privatizing it means ONE thing: higher utility bills for every family in TN-07.

We deserve a government that works for the people.
Families aren't getting paid. Services are stalled. And Republicans like Matt Van Epps and his friends in D.C. don't care if you have healthcare.
I'm going to DC to fight for you.

But the idea that hyper financialization has turned society into an asset class to be raided in order to get stock prices up is pretty close.

TENNESSEE WOMEN ARE RAGE VOTING
A small glimpse into early vote totals shows that women are outvoting men 65% to 35%! This gap may decrease, but women are using this race to show they are fed up with what's going on. Aftyn is the only woman seeking the Democratic nomination.
