IMPORTANT ISSUES! THESE ARE NOT SOLICITATIONS 

SHARED FOR EDUCATION AND INFORMATION ABOUT REPUBLICAN TACTICS 

TO DISENFRANCHISE BLACK VOTERS. 

IT'S WORTHY OF NOTE THAT THOSE REPUBLICAN CONTROLLED STATES THAT 

RUSH TO GERRYMANDER ARE AMONG THE WORST PERFORMING STATES IN 

THE NATION DUE TO REPUBLICAN GOVERNANCE. EACH MEASUREMENT 

DEFINES THEIR FAILURES WHERE THEY COULD ENJOY PROGRESS AND 

PROSPERITY! 

WE ARE ALL AMERICANS AND SHOULD ALL ENJOY THE SAME OPPORTUNITIES 

AND PRIVILEGES AVAILABLE ACROSS THE NATION...NOT SO FOR REPUBLICANS!

REPUBLICANS CONTINUE TO EXPEND MORE EFFORT AND ENERGY IN RACISM 

AND BIGOTRY THAN REQUIRED TO IMPROVE AND PROSPER.

Yesterday, I received official notice from Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton that I had been removed from all of my state House committee assignments — alongside every other Tennessee House Democrat. This is one of the most troubling abuses of power in our state’s history. This kind of retaliation only works if we let them intimidate us into silence. I won’t let them, but I’ll need your help to keep fighting. So if you’re able to, pitch in $5 or more to keep our grassroots Movement strong enough to defend ourselves and our communities from this authoritarian attack If this sounds familiar, it should. Because this is what TN House Republicans do when they don’t like what you have to say. More than three years ago, they expelled me after I protested on the House floor against their inaction on gun violence. They thought they could make an example of me for refusing to be quiet while our communities were hurting. Now, they’re doing it all over again. Last week, they pushed through rigged, racist maps designed to eliminate TN-09’s identity as a majority-Black, Democratic district. TN House Democrats stood together and made it clear that we would not stand for this injustice. So they retaliated. Committee assignments aren't ceremonial positions. They’re how state lawmakers do the day-to-day work of representing our communities — from hearing bills, shaping policy, and fighting for the needs of the People who sent us there. By stripping every Democrat of their committee assignments, the House Speaker has stripped the right to representation for nearly 2 million Tennesseans. But no matter what, they can’t strip away our voice, our courage, and our commitment to our People and neighborhoods. Civil rights icon and former Representative John Lewis taught us to make good trouble — necessary trouble. With your support, we'll keep doing just that. Please chip in $5 or more in the next 30 minutes so we have the resources to fight back against this latest abuse of power.
