Our campaign is recently getting some national attention because it’s clear that Tennesseans are ready for change. They want groceries they can afford, fully funded public schools, and an end to corruption in government. Early voting is NOW through Oct 29th. Election Day is Nov 3rd.

Marsha Blackburn claims to defend women and girls, but voted to block releasing the Epstein files. Given the choice between standing with survivors and shielding political allies, Marsha chose to protect powerful men. Tennessee deserves leaders who put justice for victims ahead of party.

If you can’t handle the questions, you aren’t prepared for the job. We held four different debates across the state. I showed up. The people showed up. Marsha was MIA. You deserve a Governor who shows up.

Everywhere I go, I'm reminded of how our faith communities serve as beacons of hope—feeding neighbors, mentoring youth, and offering comfort in hard times. It has been a privilege to worship alongside folks across our great state and witness firsthand what faith, hope, and love look like in action.

Look who we found in East Tennessee in a Trump +85 county-during the UT/BAMA game! Everywhere our campaign stops we are seeing huge crowds. Tennesseans are fired up and ready for change. Early voting is NOW through Oct 29th. Election Day is Nov 3rd.

TODAY, October 24th, is the last day to request your absentee ballot for the November 3 election. College students, service members, and anyone unable to vote in the county they are registered are able to request one. Find more info on eligibility and request yours at greenforgovernor.com/vote.

Tennesseans do not want to live under a surveillance state. Flock cameras violate our Fourth Amendment rights. Which is why, as your governor, I will work to ensure there are guardrails around Flock cameras.

There’s only one person running for governor that actually went to the University of Tennessee, and that’s me. I’m proud to be a Volunteer. And it’s our volunteer spirit that I’ll take with me all the way to the Capitol.

Too many Tennesseans go to bed hungry. We can help by ending the grocery tax. Tennessee is one of the last states taxing food while massive corporations pay little to no taxes. With a fraction of what they owe, we can end it completely. In my first budget, that's what I will fight to do.

Jackson, Memphis, Franklin, Gallatin, and Nashville—thank you. The movement we're building is special, and because of you, I know Tennessee's best days are ahead.

As Chief Public Defender and City Council member in Memphis, I have worked to protect and defend the constitution. We need guardrails around flock cameras to ensure your 4th amendment rights are protected.

Thank you to Tennessee State University for having us at the homecoming parade yesterday. It is time that we have a Governor that fully funds our HBCU’s and ensures that they have the supports in place that they deserve. Go Tigers! Early voting is open NOW until Oct 29th. Election Day is Nov 3rd.

For far too long, the GOP has put billionaires over families. That’s backwards. On November 3, we can take back our state for working people. Early voting is open NOW through Oct 29th. Election Day is Nov 3rd.

It’s time we end corruption in politics. My campaign has taken $0 from voucher schemers, corporate PACs, and big data. You deserve to have a Governor that answers only to the people of Tennessee. Early voting is happening NOW through October 29th.

🚨 BREAKING: Four Current + Former Electeds Endorse Jerri Green for Governor 🚨 I'm proud to have the support of Senator Charlane Oliver, Metro Councilwoman Zulfat Suara, Former City of Memphis Mayor Dr. Willie Herenton, and Former State Senator Brenda Gilmore. Join us at greenforgovernor.com.

Yesterday, we wiped out $17M in medical debt for 12,000 Memphians. Letters are hitting mailboxes now. Tennessee leads the nation in medical bankruptcies. As Governor, I’ll take this statewide to erase $1B for 100,000 Tennesseans. No one should go bankrupt just for getting sick.

Join Jerri Green for Governor and Michaela Barnett for Congress for a Tennessee vs. Alabama tailgate THIS Saturday! We'll be on campus with special volunteer campaign gear and goodies. Hope to see you there.

When it comes to education, my plan is simple- public dollars belong in our public schools for the public good. As governor, I will defund the voucher scheme and put that money back in our public schools where they belong.

For too long, Tennessee has prioritized the wealthy and well-connected over everyday people. I don't take AIPAC, voucher schemer, Big Pharma, Big Data, or corporate PAC money. I answer to teachers, nurses, veterans, and retirees. When I'm Governor, I'll fight for families, not billionaires.

Memphis, Signal Mountain, Nashville, Morristown, Oak Ridge, and Cookeville—in cities and hollers across this state, you are showing that we're fed up, fired up, and ready for change. Let's bring this energy to a victory in November.

15 times now that Marsha Blackburn has voted against war powers resolutions that would end the war in Iran. All the while gas and diesel prices are skyrocketing. She won’t vote to end an illegal, senseless war. Don’t give her your vote for governor.

Proud to have the support of 30+ of our state's most impactful organizations. Our campaign is building a broad coalition to take back Tennessee for working families—not billionaires. And with their help, I believe we will win.

MEMPHIS: Meet us TOMORROW morning for coffee at French Truck Crosstown. Come out to meet Democratic nominee 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!

Marsha's flying high while everyday Tennesseans struggle. Tennessee doesn't need another career politician who treats public service like a luxury perk. We need a governor who knows the reality too many Tennesseans face right now—because I've lived it.
