In this interview, Representative Todd Warner (R-Chapel Hill-District 92 ) speaks candidly about his biggest disappointment with his experience in the Tennessee Legislature - the influence of taxpayer-funded lobbyists and the good legislation aimed at limiting their influence that has been killed this session. Warner also discusses his firearms bill that would grant 18 year olds the right to bear arms along with the importance of the state’s educational system to produce literate individuals, if for no other reason than to lower the chances of them turning to crime. All this and more in an interview that you do not want to miss!

Many Republicans in the Tennessee legislature are working hard to disqualify District 5 Conservative congressional candidate, Morgan Ortagus, from running in the primaries. Fast-tracking the legislation, the Senate bill has already passed in a overwhelming 32-1 vote. Meanwhile, the same people pushing this legislation lag behind in passing good Conservative bills or outright block it before it ever reaches the floor for a vote. Just last week, good illegal immigration reforms that would make Tennessee safer, medical freedom bills that would help secure our rights, and school choice bills that would allow parents to exercise choice in the way their children are educated were all voted down in subcommittees and committees by the same people pushing the legislation targeting Ortagus. In this interview, Ortagus directly addresses this legislation for the first time in an interview and discusses her motivations to run along with her top 5 areas of focus if she is elected. This is not the typical interview you’ll find on mainstream media outlets - don’t miss it!

Conservatives in Tennessee are being targeted and discriminated against for one reason: We hold strong views on traditional American values like faith, freedom and capitalism. In this interview, Representative Dennis Powers talks about legislation that would restore freedom of speech in our state, but the BIG TECH lobbyists are working overtime to kill the bill. First, watch this video... THEN scroll down to call, email and even WRITE these committee members TODAY!

Ok, please don't just skim this.

You can find their information if you scroll down - or on the webpage where this video is hosted... (keep scrolling). This is the gist of your email or message: STOP Taxpayer Funded Lobbying!

This is something worth calling about… Right Now, Republicans in Tennessee are being heavily Censored on Social Media platforms. Conservative Thought, News, and even Jokes are censored. Members of Congress have been deplatformed and even our likely 2024 Presidential nominee has been deplatformed. Social media access is as important, if not more important than direct mail, radio or television in Elections. Deplatforming Conservative candidates and thought has the practical effect of election interference. If you have ever had your Conservative voice censored by social media or are concerned how social media censorship will affect our Elections, please do the following: • Watch this interview with Senator Bo Watson - we discuss a bill he is sponsoring in the Tennessee Senate to combat Social Media Censorship in our state. • Contact the members of the Business and Utilities Subcommittee prior to their hearing the House version of this bill (HB2369) tomorrow, Wednesday, February 23rd. You can find their contact information here - https://bit.ly/3v9hxw0 In the interview, Watson also touches on Governor Lee’s budget and K-12 funding formula, Federal “relief funds” infrastructure investments and School Choice.

Finally, the Speaker also gives us a preview of proposed bills related to criminal justice reform and critical race theory. Buckle up. This is not your typical mainstream media interview.

In this episode Brandon Lewis of the Tennessee Conservative and Dom Lucre of Blexit (TN State Director) join us to discuss the need for school choice, especially in low-income communities, and why we need to act now. Published by The Tennessee Conservative with permission from Reed Uberman from the Indie Thinker.

Right now, only 3.3% of Tennessee kids are mastering reading. Only 1 in 4 are on track. In high schools all across Tennessee, we are graduating functionally illiterate children. This moral failing of the public education system will have a lifetime of terrible consequences for our children who then become adults. In the most open, honest and frank conversation we’ve ever had on the program about School Choice, Representative Scott Cepicky talks about what’s wrong with public education in Tennessee and what the true Conservative Patriots in our Tennessee Legislature are doing to try to do what’s best for students and parents across the state.
