Tennessee Right to Life Endorses Jimmy Eldridge for House Seat

Pro-Life Organization Grateful for Legislator's Consistency and Commitment

Nashville, June 27, 2016--Among endorsements announced on Monday, the state's oldest and largest pro-life organization urged its members and advocates to support Jimmy Eldridge for re-election to the state House.

"Pro-life Tennesseans rely on Madison County voters to send pro-life leaders to Nashville," said Brian Harris, President of Tennessee Right to Life. "And pro-life leaders in Nashville have come to know that we can rely on Jimmy Eldridge to help lead efforts at the General Assembly."

"During his time in the state House, Rep. Jimmy Eldridge has been a consistent and reliable friend to the cause of life and the unborn child," said Harris.  "There have been times where it seemed unlikely that Right to Life priorities would be realized until Rep. Eldridge stepped up, stood firm, and refused to be moved from the pro-life position.

Tennessee Right to Life and pro-life voters across the state remain grateful for the steadfastness and commitment that Rep. Eldridge has demonstrated time and again on behalf of the Right to Life cause."

Eldridge has consistently maintained a 100% voting record with Tennessee Right to Life and serves as Chairman of the House Consumer and Human Resources Committee. He is endorsed for re-election by Tennessee Right to Life to represent the state's 73rd House District seat.
