We must step up to protect our environment. I was proud to stand with @ProtectAquifer and @MemphisCAP_org in that fight. There's more to do, and we need your help. Vote early until tomorrow, July 30th at 4pm, or on Election Day, August 4th!

[Michael Whaley @mgwhaley]

This is a historic long-term investment in our people, environment, and future. Thank you for the advocacy from @MICAH_901 and others. Proud to support it.

Thank you for your work in our community! @clcmemphis

We and our CREA partners are building the social supports and protections that prevent elder abuse throughout Shelby County. We would like to thank Commissioner @mgwhaley for his leadership, ensuring that our Elder Law work received funding from the County Commission for 2022-23!

Wonderful dedication today for the Memphis Suffrage Monument, honoring the local trailblazers who fought for the right to vote for women and ratification of the 19th Amendment. Thank you, Paula Casey, for your leadership to make this happen!

[Michael Whaley @mgwhaley]

Like many people, we're still without power in our house and neighborhood. Please continue to check on your neighbors and loved ones.

As power lines ice and fall they should always be treated as LIVE. Here are some tips to keep you safe during and after the storm.

Had the privilege to support several great community organizations this weekend! @westcancerfdn with Commissioner @tamisawyer and @MemphisHumane in support of their low cost clinic to make animal care more affordable to all. Thankful for your work!!

[Michael Whaley @mgwhaley]

So happy to sponsor this and support @MemphisHumane! They've done tremendous work, especially throughout the pandemic.
❤️ our four-legged friends!

[Shay Arthur @ShayA_WREG3]

HELPING OUR FURRY FRIENDS: @MemphisHumane has seen a big increase in animals needing help & care since the pandemic. Today @MayorLeeHarris & county commissioners presented the nonprofit w/ARPA funds to continue their essential work. How the money will help at 6 on @3onyourside

[Michael Whaley @mgwhaley]

Memphis & Shelby County win with great advocates like you!

[Protect Our Aquifer @ProtectAquifer]

Thank you to the 10 @ShelbyCoTN Commissioners that passed the final reading setting back crude oil pipelines 1,500ft from schools, parks, churches and homes! Solid WIN for the Aquifer and #Memphis

[Justin J. Pearson @Justinjpearson]

“government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth” That is government we deserve. Thank you Shelby County Commission for making ideals real.@tamisawyer @turnervan357 @mgwhaley @GermantownMarkB @mickellforMEM @ReginaldMilton6 #PeoplePower

[Justin J. Pearson @Justinjpearson]

Today our county commission can pass a 1,500 foot crude oil pipeline setback. This fight has always been about more than the Byhalia Connection Pipeline. It has been about protecting excluded people & our water. Thanks for your support today, Commissioner @mgwhaley!

[Justin J. Pearson @Justinjpearson]

Today, Shelby County Commissioners can pass the 1,500 foot setback for its final reading. This community-crafted legislation with inputs from People, Government, and business is good to go and the necessary protection for Memphis. @mickwright @GermantownMarkB @mgwhaley

[Senator Raumesh Akbari @SenAkbari]

These numbers are alarming & disheartening. Please wear a mask. Get vaccinated. Stop debating well known scientific facts. This is not going away unless people start doing their part. It’s hard for me to have patience with folks who still debate masks & whether COVID is serious.

[Michael Whaley @mgwhaley]

@Shotgun1059 I voted to fully fund the juvenile center, but was not on prevailing side

[Michael Whaley @mgwhaley]

Let’s do everything we can to protect our water, our environment, and our communities @ProtectAquifer

[Justin J. Pearson @Justinjpearson]

No truce on truth. No pause on justice. Thanks @MayorLeeHarris @tamisawyer @turnervan357 @mgwhaley @ReginaldMilton6 for passing the first reading of the ordinance. No Commisioner voted against this and we look forward to getting to more yeses next vote.
