THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE
WANTING TO BE THE NEXT
GOVERNOR OF TENNESSEE ONCE
AGAIN WE THANK YOU FOR BEING

NOW IS TALK ABOUT YOUR AGENDA
WHAT ARE THE TOP ITEMS THAT
YOU WANT TO ADDRESS IF YOU

ONE PRIORITY FOR STAY NEEDS
TO BE EDUCATION YOU KNOW I
THINK GOV AND GOV BRETT US
AND BOTH PROVIDED GREAT
LEADERSHIP AND EDUCATION AND
MOVED OUR STATE FORWARD WE
HAVE GOT TO CONTINUE TO BUILD
ON THAT WORK AND THAT IS
GOING TO BE THE MOST
IMPORTANT INGREDIENT FOR
TENNESSEE OF BECOMING A OF
REALLY A TRULY GREAT PLACE TO
LIVE IN A PLACE WITH A
FANTASTIC FUTURE. OUR BIGGEST
CHALLENGE I THINK IN TERMS OF
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN
THE FUTURE IS GOING TO BE
WEATHER WE HAVE THE WORKFORCE
HERE TO FILL THE JOBS THAT
ARE GOING TO COME HERE
TENNESSEE IS A VERY
ATTRACTIVE PLACE TO DO
BUSINESS IS GOOD FISCAL
MANAGEMENT COULD TAX
STRUCTURE GREAT LOCATION
GENERALLY TEMPERATE WEATHER
PEOPLE WANT TO BE HERE AND
WERE GOING TO BE SUCCESSFUL
AT ATTRACTING BUSINESS BUT IN
ORDER FOR THAT TO REALLY WORK
WERE GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE
THE WORKFORCE HEAR THAT MEANS
WE GET IDEA STATE THAT
PRODUCES MORE COLLEGE
GRADUATES FOR THE SAME TIME
WE GOT TO BE STATE
APPRECIATES IN ON EVERYONE TO
GET A FOUR YEAR DEGREE THATS
FINE AND THE BE PEOPLE WHO
WANT TO GET VOCATIONAL
PROGRAMS OF THE PEOPLE WHO
WANT TO GET TECHNICAL DEGREES
PEOPLE WHO WANT TO GET A
TRADE AND WE NEED TO MAKE
THAT POSSIBLE. WE WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY'S IN
A POSITION TO GET A GOOD JOB
THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE
WHICH IS AS YOU KNOW
THE LARGEST UNIVERSITY SYSTEM
IN THE STATE OF TENNESSEE
RECENTLY FOR THE BOARD
TRUSTEES VOTED TO APPOINT
RANDY BOYD SOMEONE WHO WAS
JUST A COUPLE MONTHS AGO
RUNNING FOR YOUR FOR
THE POSITION YOU'RE RUNNING
FOR TWENTY DROWNED AVOID AS
PRESIDENT OF THE UT SYSTEM
WHAT YOU THINK OF THAT
POSITION WOULD YOU OF VOTED
FOR AND ACTUALLY RANDY IS A
VERY GOOD PERSON AND WILL DO
I THINK HE'LL DO A GOOD JOB
IN THIS INTERIM POSITION AND
HE LONG TIME AND SO YUMMY
WITH ACTUALLY WAR DIRECTLY
RUNNING AGAINST EACHOTHER
DISEASE RIGHT PRIMARY NOW IS
ANOTHER PRIMARY BUT YOU KNOW
WE WORK TOGETHER WHEN I WAS
MAYOR ACTUALLY THE TENNESSEE
PROMISE WHICH COVER AND
ISN'T IT SUCH GOOD WORK ON WE
DID THE YEAR BEFORE NATIONAL
AND NATIONAL CHEESE AND WORK
DIRECTLY WITH RANDY WORK WITH
GOV TO GET THAT DONE SO AND
THEN AS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
WORK WE DID THAT TOO SO I
HAVE A HIGH LEVEL HE LOVES
EDUCATION. HE'S COMMITTED TO
TENNESSEE HE LOVES
THE UNIVERSITY I THINK HE'LL
DO A GOOD JOB ISN'T SOMETHING
THAT HE WAS AN ARCHITECT OF
UNDER THE ADMINISTRATION WAS
THE DR TO FIFTY FIVE YOUR
ELECTED GOVERNOR WOULD YOU
CONTINUE THAT AND CONTINUE TO
SUPPORT SURE. I THINK DRIVE
THE FIFTY FIVE WITH
THE TENNESSEE PROMISE ARE
TENNESSEE RECONNECT PUDDING
THE COLLEGE CREDITS TOGETHER
ARE GREAT PROGRAMS I WOULD
CONTINUE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO
SEE US DO MORE TO HELP WITH
SCHOLARSHIP GRANTS FOR FOUR
YEAR DEGREES BUT THOSE ARE
GOOD PROGRAMS WE NEED TO BE A
STATE THAT IS GRADUATING MORE
KIDS FROM OUT YOUNG PEOPLE
HOUSE WEENIE BUT NEEDS TO BE
HAPPENING I SUPPORTED THOSE
PROGRAMS AS MAYOR AND I WOULD
SUPPORT THEM AS GOV. LET'S
LOOK AT THAT STUDENTS YOUNGER
STUDENTS AND OF COURSE LET'S
FOCUS ON SOMETHING THAT IS
TOP OF MIND GIVEN
THE HORRIBLE MASS SHOOTINGS
THAT OF WE'VE SEEN IT SCHOOLS
IN YEARS PAST. SHOULD THERE
BE MORE SECURITY AT OUR
SCHOOL SURE TO DO ADVOCATE
THAT AND HOW SURE I WAS MAYOR
WHEN SANDY HOOK APP AND
IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER I WENT
TO WORK WITH OUR BOARD BED
AND WITH OUR COUNCIL A
NATIONAL TO MOVE UP CAPITAL
SPENDING TO DO MASSIVE
IMPROVEMENTS IN AND SAFETY
FOR SCHOOL BUILDINGS WE NEED
AS SAY SCHOOL BUILDINGS ALL
OVER THE STATE AND THAT COSTS
MONEY THAT IS AN EXPENSE THAT
WE SHOULD MAKE. WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT OUR MOST PRECIOUS
RESOURCE OUR KIDS. I THINK WE
OUGHT TO HAVE MORE RESOURCE
OFFICERS AVAILABLE IN OUR
SCHOOLS THAT TO ME IS REAL
SAFETY WE NEED THAT COSTS
MONEY THEN THAT IS A PRIORITY
FOR ME I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT
WE SHOULD BE ALLOWING
TEACHERS TO BE ARM. I DO NOT
BELIEVE THAT WE TALK ABOUT
UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES
THAT WEEKS ALLOW STUDENTS TO
CARRY WEAPONS HAVE BEEN
TALKING TO TEACHERS ON
THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL ABOUT THAT
ISSUE ARM. YES THE MOST
UNIFORMLY OPPOSE. ACTUALLY I
CAN'T THINK OF A CONVERSATION
WITH A TEACHER WHO TOLD ME
THEY WANTED TO BE ARMED I CAN
THINK OF MANY WHO SAID THEY
DIDN'T AND MANY WHO WHEN I
SAY I WILL POST TO AT REACT
VERY FAVORABLE WANTS WHICH
I'D YEARS REALLY QUICKLY TO
APPEAL. HERE IN AND
THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC HERE IN
KNOX COUNTY WE'VE HAD MORE
THAN TWO HUNDRED PEOPLE
ALREADY THIS YEAR ALONE DIE
FROM SUSPECTED OVERDOSES AND
COVER LOT OF STORIES HERE
DONE CHANNEL TEN ABOUT THOSE
OVERDOSES IN ALMOST EVERY
PERSON THAT WE SPEAK WITH
SAYS WERE DOING SOMETHING TO
FIX THIS BUT STILL
THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO GET
WORSE IF YOU'RE ELECTED
GOVERNOR WATER SPECIFICS YOU
WILL DO IN THE ACTION THE YOU
WILL TAKE TO TRY AND MAKE
THIS PROBLEM GO AWAY. WELL ME
NOW THINK IT'S AN EASY FIX
BUT I DO THINK THE GOVERNOR
HAS WAS ON THE RIGHT TRACK
TWENTY PUT MORE MONEY IN
THE BUDGET FOR TREATMENT TO
ME THIS IS CLEARLY WERE NOT
INCARCERATED OUR WAY OUT OF
THIS ISSUE THIS IS ONE WERE
TREATMENT GOING TO VITAL. I
THINK WE NEED MORE MONEY THAN
WHAT THE STATE IS PUT INTO
TREATMENT A LOT MORE MONEY
THAN THAT I THINK THAT WE
HAVE BEEN HURT BY NOT DOING
THE MEDICAID EXPANSION WAS
PART OF THIS TO WE HAVE NOT
HAD THE TREATMENT AVAILABLE
HERE FOR PEOPLE WHO NEEDED IT
IN THE PAST AND WE STAMMERED
TO TAKE TIME TO CATCH UP. I
WAS GIVEN EXAMPLE IS A GREAT
NONPROFIT NATIONAL CALLED
RENEWAL HOW ALSO WORKS WITH
MOTHERS WITH YOUNG CHILDREN
WERE ATTICS ARE PREGNANT
WOMEN WHO ARE ADDICTS AND
THEY DO GREAT WORK WITH IS A
FIFTY PERSON WADING LISTENED
THATS FOR WHOLE AREA I
VISITED HOSPITALS IN
THE NORTHEAST AND TALK TO
DIFFERENT PROVIDERS HERE TO
WE GOTTA PUT MORE MONEY IN

THING TO DO WE GET TO WATCH
