What to Expect
If you missed out on last year, don’t do it again this year. We’re back in Chattanooga for what is sure to be an event bigger than ever!
The 2026 Gubernatorial Debate
With the exit of Bill Lee, Tennessee has an important decision to make for 2026: who will be our next governor? On April 11th, we will hold a gubernatorial debate open to all official gubernatorial candidates - regardless of party. It is neutral ground to showcase their stances and try to gain the ear of the largest followed political movement in the state.
Four candidates have signed on so far… stay tuned for the final roster closer to convention.
Last year, Dr. Peter McCullough fired us all up and armed us with legislative fodder and scientific talking points for health freedom. This year, we welcome Leslie Manookian - founder of the Health Freedom Defense Fund and absolute juggernaut in the protection of your constitutionally protected rights concerning healthcare.
