🚨 BREAKING: Rep. Aftyn Behn endorses Jerri Green for Governor 🚨 "Tennessee needs leaders who can’t be bought, who won’t let AI take our jobs, and who won’t cave to Core Civic. I’m proud to endorse Jerri Green. She’s focused on real needs: lowering costs, expanding healthcare, & fixing our roads."

Check out my interview with Amanda Nelson of Amanda's Mild Takes on her Substack! We talked about my track record on making Memphis safer, my plans to make our state more affordable, and why Tennessee is ready for a Democrat to take the helm.

Thanks to Chantelle for your support! With your help, I'll be a governor who answers to families first and makes sure corporations pay their fair share.

Join us this Saturday after No Kings for an LGBTQ+ town hall with Veronika Electronika in Nashville. No matter who you are or who you love, you're welcome to join us. And I'm gonna do something my opponent Marsha won't do: I'll take questions.

The GOP’s laws made Memphis #1 for gun thefts. When 80% of us demanded safety, they threatened our funding. So I started a gun lock program that cut violent crime and thefts by 25%. While Lee and Blackburn claim the win, we’re doing the work they won't. Safety over politics—those are the facts.

This weekend, tens of thousands of Tennesseans will gather to say: NO KINGS. We're excited to join you all on Saturday in Nashville, Gallatin, and Springfield. See you there!

When we're asked how we're gonna pay for all our plans—I remind them that Bill Lee gave his billionaire buddies a $1.5 BILLION tax rebate. The problem isn't money, it's our priorities. It's time to get our priorities straight and put working families first.

Tomorrow. Stay tuned.

Memphis needs solutions, not distractions.

"For Jerri Green, creating safe spaces is not theoretical. It is the throughline connecting her work as a Memphis City Councilwoman, her recent appointment as interim chief public defender, and her decision to run for governor of Tennessee." Read the full story at focuslgbt.com.

Tennesseans don't want warfare abroad, they want healthcare right here at home. Read my newest Substack about how the war in Iran is costing American families at jerrigreen4tn.substack.com.

My opponent Marsha Blackburn is afraid she can't win fair and square—so she's going after womens' right to vote through the SAVE Act. She should be scared. Because we're going to show her at the ballot box that we're sick of the cowardice, cruelty, and chaos. Join our fight at greenforgovernor.com.

We have just FOUR counties left until we have supporters from all 95 counties. Thank you to everyone who has gotten us this far. Can you donate $5, $50, or whatever you can to show the strength of our movement spans across ALL 95 counties? Fuel our fight at greenforgovernor.com.

Both families and childcare workers need better support. Families shouldn't have to face a childcare bill that's more expensive than college, and childcare workers need the stability and living wages to stay open. We plan to address both on day one. Join our fight for families greenforgovernor.com.

Thanks to Balmoral Neighborhood Association for having me last week. I'm always glad to connect with my constituents, answer their questions, and address their concerns. If you're in District 2 and want to host a town hall with me, contact me at [email protected] and we'll get that set up!

Take your pick from our GREEN merch shop at greenforgovernor.com/shop for St. Patrick’s Day and beyond.

I'm not just running to win, I'm running to govern. Tennesseans deserve immediate relief. On day one, we will deliver. Check out our full day one plan at greenforgovernor.com/policy.

The GOP can't say they're the party of family if women can't give birth. I'll expand medicaid to re-open OB services and sign an executive order day ONE to tell doctors they can help women without fear. I'm fighting for faith, family, & freedom for every Tennessean. Join us: greenforgovernor.com.

THIS WEEKEND: Join us in Erin, Waverly, or Fairview! Come out to meet Democratic candidate for Governor of Tennessee Jerri Green, hear her vision, and share your priorities for the future of our great state. We hope to see you there! Learn where we'll be next or donate at greenforgovernor.com.

Women in Tennessee deserve better. Despite our strong communities and hardworking families, Tennessee ranks among the worst states for women’s health and economic stability. On day one, we're going to ensure women in TN have the opportunity to live with dignity, stability, & opportunity.

Thank you, Ripley, Dyersburg, and Whiteville! Your energy was unmatched. I heard from workers, business owners, and veterans tired of being left behind. Tennessee deserves a leader who listens and delivers solutions. I’m running for Governor to fight for you. Join us at greenforgovernor.com.

We're talking with veteran, advocate, and influencer Dani Cook Tuesday, March 17 at noon CST/ 1 PM EST on TikTok live. Join us on Dani's page @thedanicook. Want to invite Jerri for an interview? Email [email protected]. Check out past interviews with Jerri on greenforgovernor.com/events.

We hear this everywhere we go across TN. I know what our schools need—and it's not money being funneled to pay for welfare for the wealthy through vouchers. Students deserve a world class education no matter what zip code they live in, and teachers need more resources at their disposal—not less.

While Marsha was calling in favors during the winter storm, my campaign made 100's of calls to elderly neighbors. I’m not in public service to line my own pockets or cut to the front of the line. I’m running for Governor to make sure every Tennessean can get ahead. Join us at greenforgovernor.com

Thanks to the Tennessee Women's Political Caucus for inviting me to serve on a panel with amazing women like Senator Heidi Campbell, Representative Gloria Johnson, and new Executive Director of Healthy & Free Tennessee Judith Clerjeaune.

TN childcare shouldn't cost more than college. When parents can’t work because they can’t find affordable childcare, it holds our economy back. On Day ONE, I’ll use $50M in TANF funds to clear the childcare waitlist. Join our movement for families over billionaires at greenforgovernor.com.

Great to share my vision with the TN Municipal League! As the only candidate with local executive & legislative experience, I’ll empower local leaders by protecting local control and ensuring cities get their fair share of revenue so they can deliver the high-quality services constituents deserve.

🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: WE'RE ON THE BALLOT 🚨 And with your support, we got 20 times the signatures we were required to! Including supporters from every grand division and from corner to corner of our great state—our movement is broad and people-powered. Let's make history in November.

Join me next Wednesday at the Balmoral Neighborhood Association at 7 PM. I’m excited to connect with my constituents in District 2 and hear from you.

I'm proud to be endorsed by these incredible women from West to East Tennessee. When women lead, they get more done for the most people. It will be an honor to support these local leaders as the first woman Governor.

Thanks to everyone who came out this weekend to hear about my campaign in Linden, Whitwell, Pikeville, Oak Ridge, and Cookeville. This was our twelfth tour across the state and we were honored to share our vision with hundreds of folks in small towns. Join our movement at greenforgovernor.com.

Happy International Women's Day! I work with incredible women on the Memphis City Council. I'm proud that my race helped usher in our first women majority in 200 years. Women are the backbone of our communities in many ways–celebrate a woman in your life today! #ElectMoreWomen

Thanks for your support, Kathleen. I have a track record of advocating for women, and I'll fight like hell for you once I'm elected Tennessee's first woman governor.

On Monday, I was proud to support Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action in their calls to pass HB1210/SB1244. This bill protects survivors of domestic violence by making firearm dispossession procedures more accountable, transparent, and consistent statewide.

Holler at your neighbor and tell them we'll be in town! We have seen record turnout in nearly every town we go—that's all thanks to our incredible volunteers who make hundreds of calls to voters ahead of our stops. Reach out to our team at [email protected] and we'll get you a list!

No seat is safe for Republicans. In “ruby red” Texas, voters waited in lines for hours. Democrats turned out in record numbers. Many showed up for the very first time. James Talarico’s victory last night showed that momentum is on our side. Democrats are winning everywhere. Tennessee is next.

TN made history as the "Perfect 36" to secure women’s suffrage. It came down to a letter from a mom to her son. Today, the SAVE Act threatens that legacy by silencing millions of women. This #WomensHistoryMonth, we honor our past by protecting the vote and keeping the ballot box open for all.

With your support, we reached our End-of-Month fundraising goal in just 48 hours. Since launching this campaign, we've seen committed individuals across TN coming together to power this movement. We’ve still got miles to go, but we wouldn’t be in this fight without your support.

This is incredible. I just spoke with our team, and as of right now, we are just $1,540 away from our end-of-month goal! Can you make a contribution right now and put us over the top? Chip in $5 or more at greenforgovernor.com/donate. -Hendrell Remus, Finance Director, Jerri Green for Governor

Thank you to our supporter Robert for the letter to the editor! "I attended the JFK lunch to hear Jerri Green speak about her run to be governor of Tennessee. I was impressed beyond my wildest expectation...I encourage all Tennesseans to see her platform." Read more at Chattanooga Times Free Press

Being the underdog means making hard choices every day. We are $9,058 short of our end-of-month goal with 24 hours to go. If we don’t hit this, we have to make some tough decisions. Do we scale back or do we dig deeper and fight to win? Help fuel our fight—> greenforgovernor.com/donate
