Last night, #TeamSRG gathered at Liberty Common to celebrate the holiday season & another fantastic year. It's been a year filled with milestones, growth, & lots of hard work. A huge thank you to our spouses, families, friends, & our amazing clients for their continued support.

Big thanks to Partnership Tennessee and Cato Johnson for inviting me to speak at their fall meeting! Great discussion on expanding opportunities for all Tennesseans.

From #TeamSRG's @htmldon: The “Choose How You Move” transit initiative, backed by Mayor Freddie O’Connell, passed by a nearly 2-1 margin. Majorities of voters in every council district supported the plan with the strongest support in #EastNashville's District 6 (81% For).

Certified results were released for the primary election on Aug. 1st, including the race in #TN's Fifth District in which Rep. Andy Ogles defeated Nashville Metro Councilwoman Courtney Johnston. @htmldon's map illustrates how strongly each candidate performed in each precinct.
