Senate Majority Leader Jack Johnson has been reelected to a third term in his leadership position on Tennessee’s Capitol Hill.
The 27-member supermajority caucus also voted on Thursday to nominate Lt. Gov. Randy McNally (R-Oak Ridge) to a fifth term along with the third-term renomination of Sen. Ken Yager (R-Kingston) to his role as Republican Caucus chairman.
“I am grateful for the continued support of this incredible group of dedicated senators who work hard to serve their districts and make Tennessee the very best place to live, work and raise a family,” Johnson said in a news release. “Together, we have protected children — including the unborn, improved public safety, created more educational opportunities for families, promoted a business-friendly environment, and maintained conservative fiscal principles. This election season shows that Tennesseans are clearly aligned with Tennessee’s conservative governance, and I look forward to continuing to advance our shared values in the 114th General Assembly.”
