Tennessee’s Future Caucus,
members of the Tennessee Democratic Party
Committed loyalty to the people of Tennessee
Hard Work, rewarded | Innovation, supported | Cooperation, honored |Freedom, defended

Dear Tennessee Democrats,
As a life-long Democrat and a newly elected officer of the Tennessee Democratic Party’s Executive Committee, I have a passion and commitment to the people of Tennessee. Whether we realize it or not, we have been and are the working hands and feet of Tennesseans and their future. Throughout the history of our Party, we have held a great responsibility: to ensure that our government serves the role of providing for the common good and shared resources vital to the hardworking people of Tennessee, efficiently and responsively.
Our responsibility requires us to work in conjunction with businesses, industries, nonprofits and our neighbors to foster innovation and cooperation for a strong, united community – both now and for the future. Our responsibility requires us to defend our freedoms from internal and external oppression – both now and for the future. Our responsibilities culminate in our duty to defend hard work and ensure that it is rewarded – both now and in the future. Through our down-home Tennessee upbringing we’ve walked a mile in many a shoes across our hills, valleys, fields and streams. It’s time to take that extra mile for the working families of Tennessee.
I ask you to read the attached pdf document to learn more about the formation of Tennessee's Future Caucus as individual members of the Tennessee Democratic Party. I hope that you will join me and others as we strive to promote leadership, responsibility and accountability within the Party as a engaged and collective group (i.e. Caucus).
If you are interested in joining, please let me know. If you have questions or concerns, I am always willing to listen, learn and talk.
Respectfully,
Brad
Brad Parish, Tennessee Democratic Party
East Tennessee Vice Chairman
12th District Executive Committeeman

Ok Brad, here's a shout-out from the West
LWC post
72% of 18-34 year-olds report engaging in politics online.
"79% believe they can make a difference by participating in politics"
Excellent age group to
Excellent age group to engage. Excellent way to engage them where they are.
I am a strong believer in strategic planning. We will not be able to do everything right now, however, we can immediately focus on one or two strategic areas and do them very well.
We must rejuvenating the excitement of this demographics from the last election. We must continue to grow this demographics' engagement. This must be one of our top two priorities. Without this generation we will be left without a future Party and that also goes for today.
