Issues

Jobs

Ed is working to promote small businesses and limited government in order to stimulate job creation and a stronger economy.

Pro-Life

Ed is 100% pro-life. He is especially concerned with lowering the number of infants born with neonatal abstinence syndrome.

2nd Amendment rights

Ed firmly believes in protecting our constitutional right to bear arms. He’s a member of the NRA and has received an A-rating from the NRA for his commitment to the 2nd Amendment.

Education

Ed understands that Tennessee has a long way to go on education. He wants higher academic standards for our students, opposes Common Core, and supports our teachers. Ed knows we need to find innovative ways to educate our children and provide vocational training.

Taxes

Taxes stifle business. Ed has a long record of cutting taxes so our families can keep more of their hard-earned money.

Healthcare

Tennesseans deserve quality access to healthcare. Ed supports block grants for healthcare and is an advocate for less federal red tape and oversight.

Justice Reform

We need juvenile and adult reform. Ed believes in providing counseling to non-violent offenders and in daily reporting centers, which deliver better results while costing taxpayers less.
