Tennessee U.S. Representative Andy Ogles (R-TN-05) recently picked up endorsements from four of his colleagues serving the Volunteer State in the U.S. House of Representatives.
U.S. Representatives Diana Harshbarger (R-TN-01), Tim Burchett (R-TN-02), Chuck Fleischmann (R-TN-03), and Mark Green (R-TN-07) all endorsed Ogles’ reelection bid for Tennessee’s 5th Congressional District.
Burchett said he is looking forward to Ogles being reelected so the pair can work together to “drain the open sewer that is Washington, DC.”
“Andy has proven time and again that he will never back down from standing up for what is right,” Burchett (pictured here) said. “He has my endorsement, and I encourage all voters in his district to support him for reelection. I look forward to working with Andy for years to come, draining the open sewer that is Washington, DC.”
Fleischmann noted Ogles’ work on the House Financial Services Committee, saying he has been a “steadfast advocate for Tennessee’s values.”
“It is with great enthusiasm that I endorse Andy Ogles for re-election to Congress. While serving on the House Financial Services Committee, Andy has been a steadfast advocate for Tennessee’s values, fiercely defending our economic interests and punishing rogue bureaucrats when they step out of line,” Fleischmann said. “Andy’s dedication to our constitutional rights, especially his work to defend free speech and religious liberty, exemplifies his commitment to the foundational principles of our nation. He is the clear choice for Tennessee’s 5th District.”
Green, who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee, noted Ogles’ work to “secure the border, cut spending, and restore Constitutional government” during his first term in Congress.
“Andy Ogles has been a steadfast conservative fighter for the people of Tennessee’s 5th district. He has been a critical partner in our efforts to secure the border, cut spending, and restore Constitutional government since arriving in Congress last year. I’m proud to endorse him for re-election and look forward to continuing to fight alongside him in the years to come,” Green (pictured here) said.
Ogles said he was “incredibly honored” to have received the endorsements of his colleagues, adding, “We have the finest representatives of any state in the nation, bar none, and their leadership in the House and beyond has been instrumental in shaping the course of government.”
“I look forward to serving the great people of Tennessee alongside them for many years to come,” Ogles said.
Ogles has also been endorsed by Tennessee U.S. Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN), Texas U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), Utah U.S. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH-04), and the Republican Liberty Caucus in recent weeks.
The Tennessee congressman has also been endorsed by former President Donald Trump.

Integrity, honesty and intestinal fortitude, Congressman Andy Ogles possesses these qualities in abundance he is a true Statesman. Washington will never get fixed if we send more self interested special interest serving hacks to serve the public trust. His newly minted opponent in this contest represents the appeasement crowd looking to grow government to make money.
