CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — A coalition of conservative organizations from across the state of Tennessee will host a gubernatorial forum on Thursday, June 25, in Chattanooga, Tennessee, inviting all Republican candidates for governor to participate in a policy-focused discussion on the future of the state.
The forum is being organized on behalf of grassroots leaders and conservative constituents who are passionate about preserving Tennessee’s conservative values and hearing directly from candidates about how they plan to support them.
Candidates will receive a list of discussion topics in advance. The forum will focus exclusively on policy issues, allowing each candidate the opportunity to clearly articulate their positions and explain how they intend to implement their agenda if elected.
For those candidates who choose not to attend, Tennessee Stands will provide their voting record and any other pertinent information regarding the candidate’s positions.
The event will also be recorded and livestreamed to ensure voters statewide have access to the discussion.

“This forum is about giving Tennessee conservatives the opportunity to hear directly from the candidates on the issues that matter most to them,” said Anne Lowery, Executive Director of Tennessee Stands. “We are grateful to partner with organizations from across the state that are committed to informed civic engagement and principled conservative leadership.”
Organizations supporting the forum include:
- Activate Hamilton
- Citizens United of Athens
- Conservative Club of Tellico
- East Tennessee Freedom
- Empowered Sevier
- Freedom Women of Tennessee
- Hamilton County GOP
- Knoxville Nobility
- Lawrence County GOP
