Meet John
John is a conservative outsider and lifelong Tennessean. He is raising his family on the Generational Rose family farm because Tennessee is his home.
In fact, John is the 8th generation to live and farm in the adjoining Temperance Hall and Lancaster communities in Dekalb and Smith Counties. He started working on the farm as a kid and was raised in nearby Cookeville. John graduated from Cookeville High School and continued his education at Tennessee Tech University, home of the Golden Eagles. He studied agriculture at Tech, an easy choice for him since farming has always been a passion of his.
Thank you, Hamblen County. Every stop reminds me why I love this great state and the people who call it home. #TNTrue
Williamson County, thank you for making us feel right at home. On to the next stop. #TNTrue
Government subsidized solar farms shouldn't be built on our best farm land. This is part of why we're losing 10 acres of farmland an hour in Tennessee.
A strong turnout in Meigs County! Thank you to everyone who came out to be part of the conversation. We’re building something special. #TNTrue
I’ve been a conservative my whole life. In Congress I’m a staunch supporter of President Trump, stood by him on Jan 6. He endorsed me in every run for Congress. In TN, I helped fund the GOP takeover of the state legislature and worked hard against the state income tax. This red truck is what my friend John and I drove around the State Capitol during the income tax debates. The locomotive horn in the back was so loud, it shook the glass inside the Capitol! We were firm in our belief that an income tax was bad for Tennessee. As Governor, I will always stand for conservative principles because those are my principles: faith, family, and freedom. Elections get heated, but I think Tennesseans want something different. They want honesty and integrity. I promise to operate that way now and will do so as your Governor.
