Momentum Builds: State Rep. Gloria Johnson Endorses Vincent Dixie for Congress
September 04, 2025
NASHVILLE, TN — The momentum behind State Representative Vincent Dixie’s campaign for Congress continues to grow as State Representative Gloria Johnson, a member of the “Tennessee Three” and nationally recognized advocate for democracy and working families, announced her endorsement.
“For years, Vincent Dixie has focused on what matters to families: a roof over their heads, food on the table and earning a decent living,” said Rep. Johnson. “I agree completely and I know Vincent will stand up and fight for all Tennessee families.”
Rep. Johnson’s endorsement marks another major boost in Dixie’s campaign ahead of the October 7th Democratic primary. Johnson, who captured national attention for her courage on the House floor after the Covenant School tragedy, has become one of Tennessee’s most trusted progressive leaders.
“I’m proud to have the support of Rep. Gloria Johnson, who has stood up for Tennesseans time and again, even in the face of political retaliation,” said Dixie. “Her endorsement reflects the growing energy behind this campaign, and together, we’ll continue the fight to make life more affordable, strengthen our public schools, and put people before politics.”
With early voting starting September 17th, the Dixie campaign is building momentum across the 14 county district. Support from trusted leaders like Rep. Johnson adds to the growing coalition working to flip TN-07 from red to blue this December.
