Brown is running for the Tennessee State House in District 37 as a Democrat. She’s taking on the incumbent Republican, Charlie Baum, who’s an MTSU professor.

Unlike her opponent, she rejects donations from Corporate PACs.

We discuss her platform in the interview:

Labor unions
Skyrocketing rent costs
Elder care
And more!

You can learn more about Brown on her website and her Facebook page.

Thanks to Cheri for stopping by, and thanks to you for listening to/watching this episode of The Kennel: The Honorable Series!

The Honorable Series
