Rep. William Lamberth

“As our U.S. Senator, Marsha Blackburn has been a leading voice in advancing President Donald Trump’s mission to strengthen border security and enforce the rule of law. Her leadership reflects a clear understanding that effective governance and the security of our nation require seamless collaboration between our state and federal partners.

“That same commitment has guided Tennessee’s approach to immigration enforcement, and we’ve taken decisive steps to address these challenges here at home.

“Throughout her public service, Marsha Blackburn has made the well-being of Tennessee communities a central focus, recognizing that a state’s strength depends on safe neighborhoods where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. As governor, she will continue leading the fight to make every community across our state safer and more prosperous.

“I am proud to support Marsha Blackburn for governor and look forward to working alongside her to ensure the Volunteer State’s best days are still ahead.”
