    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.

    A farmer shouldn't lose land his family has worked for 100 years because Nashville's sprawl drove up his assessment. As governor, I'll advocate for limits on property tax increases for Tennessee families.

    Some people tell me to stop talking about my farm background. I just can't do that. It's part of my DNA. I'm an 8th generation Tennessee farmer and here's why that matters. On the farm, I learned that you finish the job you start and you never, ever quit.

    Thank you, Hardin County, for a great stop on the #TNTrueTour. From protecting Tennessee farmland from foreign adversaries to fixing our roads and keeping education grounded in the values we hold dear, it was great to hear from folks invested in our state’s future.

    I support Tennessee curriculum with American history, not revisionist history.

    Looking forward to visiting Lincoln County on May 27 for our next #TNTrueTour stop. Lincoln County’s rural communities and downtown charm reflect the character and spirit that make our state special, and I can’t wait to spend time with the people who keep these communities strong!

    Yes, I live on a farm, but I'm also a United States Congressman who can't even get from his house to the interstate without dropping a call. Sound familiar? It's way past time to connect ALL of Tennessee.

    As Governor, I'll work my fingers to the bone to ensure that this state is 100% PRO-LIFE.

    Two years ago, I was giving a speech focused on the politically-motivated prosecution of Donald Trump when my son photo-bombed me, and Colbert noticed. Admittedly, it was a pretty funny sketch. With Colbert’s swan song airing last night, I guess the President gets the last laugh after all!
