Lowered Unemployment Rate And Generated Significant Investment In Tennessee

Nashville, TN — Today, Team Hagerty released a new digital video, highlighting Bill Hagerty’s economic experience. Under Bill’s leadership as Tennessee’s Commissioner of Economic and Community Development, tens of thousands of new jobs were created, lowering Tennessee’s unemployment rate from high above the national average to far below the national average. During these years of economic growth and prosperity, Tennessee became a national leader for business, earning back-to-back “State of the Year” distinctions from Business Facilities magazine.

“As a businessman and the former chief economic leader in Tennessee, I understand what turning around an economy takes,” said Bill Hagerty. “Tennessee has continued to consistently move the needle every year, developing more opportunities for economic growth and generating billions of dollars of investment. As your Senator, I will work to promote low taxes and a positive business environment in our state and work with President Donald Trump and Senator Marsha Blackburn to bring our critical supply chains home from China to the U.S. Together, with Tennessee’s Republican leadership, we can get our economy back on track, and Tennessee will continue to expand and prosper for years to come.”
