|The property in my family has been in my family since before Tennessee was a state.
- Tennessee has to always be pro-gun
- Mental health is a serious matter that must be address
- Educating our kids
I am pro-gun, I want better mental health services for our people and our community. Fair and just education of our children is of the utmost importance. Our country must provide reparations to the descendants of the people who helped build this company and were unable to equally partake in the benefits.
