We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of State Representative G.A. Hardaway. Hardaway was a devoted advocate for his constituents in Memphis' House District 93, serving for nearly 20 years.

Thanks to members of the @TNHouseReps & @tnsenate for passing the Better Spending Better Schools Act. Our polling has found that more than 64% of voters believe education funding isn't being spent efficiently, and this legislation will help address that lack of trust.
