I am devastated to learn of the death of Kyle Jacobs, an enormously gifted songwriter and generous and caring friend of our family and of so many others. Our hearts go out to Kellie and to Kyle’s family and to their many friends in the Nashville community. — PolitiTweet.org

No city had a better mayor than Dale Kelley. For decades Dale’s big ideas lifted up Huntingdon and West Tennessee. He served our state with distinction and was one of the most admired basketball officials. https://t.co/JtkaWzyGfu — PolitiTweet.org

Every penny raised from the fee will be spent on creating a better visitor experience in the Smokies. Superintendent Cassius Cash and the National Park Service deserve thanks from all of us who enjoy the Smokies for solving a big problem with an obvious solution. — PolitiTweet.org

A modest parking fee is a no-brainer for @GreatSmokyNPS. It is an obvious way to help solve two big problems: parking and lack of money. The Smokies doesn’t charge entrance fees and this won’t change that.    READ my op-ed in @knoxnews: https://t.co/rGoRoJ7jms — PolitiTweet.org

No one knows who will be driving what 40 years from now. But Tennessee’s cluster of auto manufacturers and suppliers is well positioned to figure out the future and to continue to raise family incomes. Read my op-ed in the @Tennessean: https://t.co/AFw7m0rqy0 — PolitiTweet.org
