HEY. TENNESSEE. HERE'S WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE EPSTEIN LIST. According to recent polling, anywhere from 69% to 89% of Americans would like more information on the Epstein files. This means that it is a bi-partisan issue. Your Congressman can be swayed.
WE ARE ASKING TWO THINGS OF YOU CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE No matter who they voted for, most Americans agree on this issue. Even in a red state, you are in the majority. SEND THIS TO ONE FRIEND Only two more signatures are needed to force a vote on the floor. Your voice matters - and so do your friends'. Urge them to get involved! TWO MORE REPUBLICANS ARE NEEDED TO SIGN A PETITION TO FORCE A VOTE.
TELL THEM TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES "I URGE YOU TO SUPPORT THE RELEASE OF THE EPSTEIN FILES BY SIGNING THE DISCHARGE PETITION H. RES 581, THE EPSTEIN TRANSPARENCY ACT. THE SURVIVORS OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN'S ABUSE DESERVE JUSTICE. REFUSING TO SIGN THIS DISCHARGE PETITION IS A DECISION TO CONTINUE TO HURT THE SURVIVORS OF ABUSE. I REFUSE TO VOTE FOR, OR PROVIDE FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO, ANY CANDIDATE WHO DOES NOT SIGN THE DISCHARGE PETITION TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES."

Nashville, this Labor Day belongs to the people β MigraWatch has called a vigil, and weβre proud to stand with them.
These issues wonβt disappear on their own. We need to show that we will not stand for it. Join us at the ICE Field Office in peaceful solidarity with those affected by their actions.
Keep an eye outβ¦we have whispers of something we are waiting to confirm before announcing π
Itβs time to flip the script.
Put people over profit. Community over greed. Workers over billionaires.
@andyogles @marshablackburn @billleetn you work for us, not corporations. Weβre sending a message to get that through your head.
While billionaires bribe our administration into policies that allow them to hoard profit, workers are losing healthcare and facing rising costs and threats to their unions.
The people who keep this city alive deserve more than low wages and broken promises.
In Nashville, we know who makes this city run. Itβs the nurses pulling doubles, the teachers holding classrooms together, the musicians playing for tips, and the immigrants enriching our community.
Blackburn chickens out, again. She's terrified of average Tennesseans, or anyone who might ask questions about her horrific voting record or pattern of embracing open sewer corruption.

Tennesseans are still reeling from Marsha Blackburnβs record:
β Cuts to TennCare

β Hiding from her own constituents
And now, as she launches her run for Governor, sheβll be reading inside the TN State Museum on Saturday 8/23.
