Yusuf Hakeem Thanks Supporters

  • Wednesday, August 7, 2024

Thank you to every single person who helped to make my election happen - if you volunteered, donated, or cast your vote on Aug. 1.

Your support helps to support the initiatives we as Democrats are fighting for in Tennessee.

Besides electing our first black female president and sending Gloria Johnson to the United States Senate, we have several opportunities in November to flip seats to good Democrats who understand what Tennesseans really care about: More funding for public schools (not less), more access to healthcare (not less), and more common sense gun laws that keep our loved one safer (not less).

Rep. Yusuf Hakeem

House District 28
