Beat Bill Lee

We are a local and national grassroots movement to defeat Bill Lee and the radical right's agenda to make life harder for working families.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

46th in student funding
11,433 unfunded teacher positions
> 70% of 3rd graders cannot read on grade level
Proficiencies are at an all time low

Bill Lee is a liar and he chose an illegal voucher program over students. We must save our Tennessee schools. We must Beat Bill Lee.

While the Governor is doing his best to dodge the @FBI, there are bills within the senate on track to become law which would create special legal statuses for “natural immunity”, ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine in Tennessee.

Our statement regarding the Civil Rights news of Hillside College & Governor Lee.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

Jordan Mollenhour went from being sued for selling ammunition to school shooters to being a member Tennessee’s Board of Education appointed by Bill Lee.

This Governor does not care about the safety of our students.

There is no “freedom” with @TNRight2Work. The measure will ensure your employer can fire you without notice nor reason, and makes it far more difficult to secure better wages and working conditions.

This is blatantly against the interests of the average Tennessean.

[Gov. Bill Lee @GovBillLee]

This November, we have an opportunity to preserve freedom in the workplace by securing right-to-work in our state Constitution. #VoteYeson1 means saying yes to a strong economy & good jobs for generations to come. @TNRight2Work

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

Brian Kelsey & Robin Smith’s departure from the statehouse should be sending shockwaves to corrupt politicians who enable Lee’s behavior with outlandish backwards policies.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

Right to Work ensures working families aren’t paid their full worth and allows employers to take advantage of Tennesseans.

[Gov. Bill Lee @GovBillLee]

For 75 years, #Right2Work has protected Tennesseans’ freedom in the workplace & kept our economy strong. I’m proud to proclaim it Right-to-Work Week & encourage Tennesseans to #VoteYESon1 this November to protect worker freedom & TN jobs for generations to come. @TNRight2Work

RT if you want a Governor who doesn’t get our state into frivolous lawsuits! 🙋

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

@JoePezzula We of course are not endorsing anyone in the primary, but here are the current list of candidates running against Lee on the democratic side.

Carnita Atwater
Dr. Jason Martin (@jasonbmartin)
J.B. Smiley Jr., Esq. (@jbsmileyjr)

A bill is currently making its way through the Republican lead house to allow 18 year olds to open carry.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’d think the best way to stop violence is to actually approach the problem, not just virtue signal to LEOs

[Gov. Bill Lee @GovBillLee]

Violent crime has no place in Tennessee, period. To immediately strengthen public safety, we have to invest in evidence-based crime prevention methods and continue efforts to recruit and retain qualified law enforcement officers.

Bill Lee refusing to take a detailed stance against the banning (and burning) of books will lead to dire consequences. Students need a space to learn, create, and grow, not one that treats knowledge as a crime.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

Because of a bill you signed into law, a state-funded adoption agency denied a Jewish couple in Knoxville from bringing love to a child in need.

You absolutely do not care about the well being of children.

[Gov. Bill Lee @GovBillLee]

During “Adoption is Love Week”, we recognize the many forever families across TN who have opened their hearts & homes to give our youth a permanent, safe & loving environment.

Thank you, TN adoptive families for the role you play in helping children reach their full potential.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

It’s beyond insulting Lee would rather use taxpayer dollars to fund the RNC convention instead of funding our public schools.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

Everyday Bill Lee is not held accountable for his role in the abuse of power in giving no-bid contracts, we are setting a dangerous precedent for our leaders.

There must be accountability.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

Friendly reminder, Bill Lee is still being audited by Nashville DA, Glenn Funk for his abuse of power in the giving away of no-bid contracts.

His administration wasted literal millions paying out friends and supporters of Lee.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

Let me get this straight, there were thousands without power for nearly 6 days during freezing temperatures, and @GovBillLee just now acknowledged this?

How is this even acceptable?

[Gov. Bill Lee @GovBillLee]

I have asked @fema to conduct a damage assessment for the severe ice storm in West TN & determine eligibility for federal relief.

While city & county officials work to restore local utilities, the state will pursue every option to help Tennesseans recover & receive resources.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

While Lee and his administration of zealots attempt to alter your day to day life with their radical ideas, remember the point of gerrymandering was to ensure YOU can’t hold your elected officials accountable.

They knew what they were doing.

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

Bill Lee should’ve done the right thing and shot down these out-of-touch redistricting maps—being an enabler to the supermajority won’t save him from being defeated.

Voters of Tennessee will remember this action. #BeatBillLee

[Beat Bill Lee @beatbilllee]

There’s been a lot of talk regarding how Lee will impact our education system with his illegal vouchers.

Personally, we think this call out is far PAST DUE.
