Representative John Gillespie

Proud HPU alum cheering from afar 🎓💜🐾 What a historic day! High Point University just notched their FIRST-EVER NCAA Tournament victory, taking down Wisconsin. From back-to-back Big South champs to dancing deep in March – this program is unstoppable. Congrats to Coach Clayman, the players, and everyone who's built this powerhouse. The Panther pride is real and roaring louder than ever! #GoHPU #FirstEver #MarchMadness #ProudPanther #HPUAlum

@Amandae4sm6 Correct, that’s why hometown is in quotes.

@repgillespie Commercial appeal was bought out by Gannett. USAToday Network. A while ago. You should know that.

It's sad what our "hometown" newspaper has become. The last straw was years ago, but now this.

Tennessee Ag Month is the perfect time to recognize the industry that has shaped our state for generations. Grateful for everyone who came to the Capitol to share their craft today.

[5:10 PM]: Over the next hr or so thunderstorm activity will increase across the Mid-South, W to E. We’re looking at discrete supercells out ahead of the main cold front. The environment is primed and ready for damaging winds (75+mph), quick spin-up tornadoes, & large hail. ⛈️🌪️

One hour. One donation. One life saved. This Red Cross Month, give blood and remind your community what neighbor-to-neighbor care looks like in action.

Students in Shelby County need more options. Every child deserves to have a great education, regardless of where they live or how much their parents make. HB0001 creates opportunity that’s within reach.

March is a time to recognize the value and contributions of Tennesseans with developmental disabilities. That’s why I supported HB2089, creating the Department of Disability and Aging to improve coordination of services for individuals and families in need.

In addition to @TheTNHoller failing to find ONE credible study showing negative impact to air quality by @xAIMemphis, but it also fails to mention that @xai saved Shelby County’s tax shortfall. @DailyMemphian:

Great news for Memphis residents! The EPA has confirmed that no forever chemicals have been detected in our drinking water. This is a great step in ensuring safety and peace of mind for our community. commercialappeal.com/story/news/loc…

@RepJeffries Literally your fault @RepJeffries. Stop lying to the American people!!!

America is at war, TSA agents aren’t being paid and this guy is playing golf. Why are House Republicans continuing to support this train wreck? Sycophants.

International Women's Day is a reminder to stop and honor the women who shape us. For me, that starts with my mom, whose strength and love have guided me my whole life, and my fiancée, who inspires me every single day with her courage and vision.

A friendly reminder to spring forward tomorrow. Set your clocks ahead tonight and welcome longer evenings across Tennessee.

Street racing puts everyone on our roads in harm’s way. I’m cracking down on illegal racing activity for the protection of our people here in Memphis.

@9thGenTN You can read the bill. House bill 33 and look up the most recent reports from Memphis Crime Beat. If you still have questions, let me know.

@repgillespie Haven’t read the bill, but pretty sure there was no “automatic” bail prior to it passing. Why don’t you post a link to the bill for us. I look forward to reading it.

Today, I passed HB0033. I’ve been working on this bill for the past year, because it prevents criminals from automatically being let out on bail if they display or use a firearm. Memphis is now safer without violent criminals running free on our streets.

A friendly reminder to spring forward tomorrow. Set your clocks ahead tonight and welcome longer evenings across Tennessee.

On Read Across America Day, we recognize that literacy is the foundation of opportunity. Investing in education means investing in Tennessee’s future.
