Endorsements Announced for State House 50 Candidate
Charles Williamson |
“I
am always glad to speak out for a candidate who will do an outstanding
job in office, someone who I believe stands for what is best for the
people of Tennessee. In the case of Charles Williamson, I am
particularly honored to be able to encourage my fellow Republicans to
support such a great candidate.
As
a geologist, farmer, and small businessman, Charles will bring real
world experience and valuable skills to the major issues facing the
Tennessee House of Representatives. As a person, I know Charles to be
honest and principled, and he will put the good of the people over
special interests.
I am proud to call Charles my friend and to ask you to support him for State Representative.”
Winfield Dunn, Governor of Tennessee (1971-1975)
“We
know how important it is to have lawmakers who have real-world
experience and who understand the impact of government on Tennessee’s
economy. Tennessee needs more citizen-legislators who will fight for the
voters and not for special interests. Charles Williamson is a
hard-working small businessman and farmer. These skills and experiences
have prepared him to be an outstanding representative of the people.
Further, he has the rock-solid character to help restore respect for
state government in Tennessee. If we had more people like Charles
Williamson as legislators during the income tax fights, we would have
stopped it in the first year. “We both strongly endorse Charles
Williamson for State Representative in District 50. Charles will be a
legislator who will make Tennessee proud.”
Senator Ben Atchley, Senate Republican Leader (1986-2004)
Senator Sue Atchley, State Senator (2011)
“As
a longtime Tennessee businessman, and with his involvement in
agriculture as a farmer and rancher, Charles Williamson has experience
that will offer Tennessee a unique balanced perspective. This is a rare
quality and one that will serve Charles well as a Tennessee legislator. I
highly recommend Charles to the voters of District 50.”
Representative Frank Niceley of Knoxville,
Chair of the House Agriculture Committee.
