STANDING IN DEFIANCE AND SOLIDARITY |
Majority of TN House Democrats Endorse Pearson for Congress |

Dear Friend, On Tuesday, Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton thought he did a thing when he ejected all 24 Tennessee House Democrats from all House committee and subcommittees. What he did was fire up a majority of House Democrats to form a multi-racial, multi-generational coalition of solidarity against his racist, antidemocratic actions. Speaker Sexton’s move to disenfranchise over 1.5 million Tennesseans from representation on House committees where major decisions are made is a double-down on the racist redistricting vote to eliminate the state’s only majority Black district. This whitelash is not having the intended effect. Rather than cause us to cower down in fear, House Democrats are rising up to meet this challenge head-on in unity. |

TN House Democrat Endorsements |

Rep. Torrey Harris (D-91) |

| “No matter how they try to move the finish line, redraw the maps, or silence the voices of Black communities in Tennessee, our people have always found a way to rise, organize, and fight forward. Rep. Justin J. Pearson is unapologetically Black, boldly committed to justice, and deeply rooted in the struggles and strength of our communities. He has never been afraid to speak truth to power, stand with working families, defend voting rights, fight for safer neighborhoods, and demand real opportunities for our children and future generations. At a time when attacks on representation and democracy are becoming more deliberate, we need leadership that will not bow down, back up, or sell out. We need leadership that understands the history, the pain, the resilience, and the brilliance of our communities. I am proud to endorse my colleague, my brother, and my friend, Rep. Justin J. Pearson, for U.S. House District 9 because I know he will continue to be a fearless voice for the people and a champion for justice in Washington.” --Rep. Torrey Harris |

| "Justin is a once-in-a-generation leader with the vision and dogged tenacity to shift politics in Tennessee, and the rare ability to lift everyone around him in the process. Our offices sit next to each other on the fifth floor in the Tennessee Legislature. On my worst days, when hopelessness creeps in, I can hear Justin's joyous energy seeping through the walls...exactly the nudge I need to endure another day. Whether he's taking on tech oligarchs or fighting for working Tennesseans' right to clean air and water, I am honored to live in the same timeline as him, and I will do everything in my power to send him to Congress, because he's the future we deserve." -- Rep. Aftyn Behn |

Thank you to my fellow Tennessee House Democrats for their pledge of support and endorsement of my leadership to bring justice to District 9 at the ballot box. In other campaign news, the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee denied our request for a restraining order to stop the racist maps until the lawsuit could be adjudicated. We are undaunted by this news. Whether it is the old District 9 or the new District 9, we are still here. We are still fighting. And the Movement for Justice Rooted in Love is growing. Let's win this race and get justice at the ballot box together! In Love and Service, |

This is not a campaign. It is a movement to bring new vision, energy, ideas and values to Congress. It's about public service in District 9 that is proximate to the People and rooted in love. We will never accept corporate PAC money—ever. This means we cannot do this without you. Join the Movement today. Thank you for investing in the future of our dreams. |
