    Countdown to December 1, 2019 “On this Day in History” for Johnson City, Tennessee’s Sesquicentennial December On December 1, 1869, Johnson City “received its first charter from the state of Tennessee under the name of Johnson City.” (Source: Greater Johnson City A Pictorial History.) On December 1, 1966, Johnson City native Steve Spurrier won the Heisman Trophy. (Source: “Glimpses of Johnson City, Tennessee,” Community Relations Department, City of Johnson City, Tennessee.) On December 2, 1978, the Statler Brothers appeared with Barbara Mandrel at Freedom Hall. Tickets ranged in price from $5.50 to $7.50.

  • June 28, 2018 Dear Senator, We, the Undersigned, Are Members of Issue
    June 28, 2018 Dear Senator, We, the undersigned, are members of Issue One’s ReFormers Caucus — a coalition of former members of Congress, Cabinet officials and governors representing all fifty states — writing to strongly urge you to co-sponsor the bipartisan, bicameral Honest Ads Act. The bill is a carefully crafted first step to address foreign meddling in U.S. ​ politics. The Honest Ads Act is also the first bill created in response to outside interference in the 2016 elections. There is encouraging widespread agreement: The Intelligence Community Assessment and both the House and Senate Intelligence Committees concur that foreign actors interfered in the 2016 U.S. elections through the use of paid, online advertisements on some of the largest internet platforms — all to divide Americans and weaken the country. These ads — some of which were paid for in rubles — targeted certain American voters in an attempt to sow discord and manipulate our political system. It is imperative that Congress act now in response to this national security crisis created by Russia and other non-state actors in order to protect our free and fair elections from foreign intrusions in the future. For decades, disclosure rules governing political advertising in print, radio and television have improved transparency and accountability by providing American consumers with vital information. While rules involving these types of media have proven successful, hardly any disclosure rules exist for the digital frontier and online advertisements. The Honest Ads Act simply seeks to update our 20th century laws and requires similar disclosure requirements as television and radio advertisements.

    <BillNo> <Sponsor> HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION 377 By Sexton C A RESOLUTION to honor the memory of Senator William Emerson "Bill" Brock III from Tennessee. WHEREAS, we were greatly saddened to learn of the passing of William Emerson "Bill" Brock III, a former U.S. Senator from Tennessee who had served the Republican Party as chairman of its national committee and his country as U.S. Trade Representative and Secretary of Labor under President Ronald Reagan; and WHEREAS, a gentleman and politician of the old school, Senator Brock spoke out publicly against the lack of civility in today's political arena and criticized the "inexcusably divisive, even abusive, language of recent years"; and WHEREAS, as an elected official, Senator Brock believed in doing what was right, as opposed to what was politically expedient, and he was committed to working out differences between opposing viewpoints; and WHEREAS, in short, "he was a statesman of the highest caliber, leading by example, with kindness and humility"; and WHEREAS, a native of Chattanooga, Bill Brock served in both chambers of Congress; although he was raised as a Democrat, he was skeptical of either party being too dominant and ran as a Republican for Tennessee's Third Congressional District seat in the U.S. House of Representatives; and WHEREAS, his election to the U.S. House in 1962 was an early step in the reemergence and subsequent growth of the GOP in Tennessee; Bill Brock represented the good people of the Third Congressional District for four terms as the first Republican the district had sent to Washington, D.C., in forty years; and HJR0377 006056 - 1 - WHEREAS, in 1970, he defeated the eighteen-year Senate incumbent from Tennessee, a mere four years after Howard Baker, Jr., had become the first Tennessee Republican to serve in the U.S.
