Jim Harding on the Issues:
JOBS
As a small business owner, I understand what it takes to live within your means. I believe our government must live as we do and stop wasteful spending and return to common sense conservative solutions.
I will oppose any state income tax and will seek to keep Tennesseans working through fewer regulations on our small businesses.
EDUCATION
As a former teacher, I understand that our children are our future, and I will demand better learning opportunities for Tennessee students so we become leaders in education rather than followers.
Learning experiences are as diverse as the people of our state, and parents should be allowed to choose which form of education works best for their child whether it be home school, public school or charter schooling.
CONSERVATIVE VALUES
I am a soldier, a business man, a teacher and a gun owner, and I’m committed to opposing any legislation that interferes with our 2nd Amendment Rights.
I believe marriage is a sacred vow and should take place between one man and one woman.
I am pro-life and will seek to protect the lives of the unborn.
