Issue Position

"My story isn't all that different than any other middle class person in small town America. I've worked hard all my life, and have always been there for my family, friends and neighbors. I've been blessed to live in Rutherford County for 47 years and you can count on me to continue to fight to make our community a wonderful place to live, work and raise a family". -- Tim Rudd

As a small business owner, Tim knows that small businesses are the backbone of our economy. Low taxes and fewer government regulations are essential for job growth and small business creation. As your State Representative, you can count on Tim to fight to make Tennessee the best possible environment for new businesses to be established and existing businesses to thrive.

Conservative Republican leadership in Tennessee has resulted in our state being named a top business friendly state. Tennessee's ratio of debt and pension liabilities to personal income continues to be amongst the lowest in the nation.

Tim is a fiscal conservative. You can count on him to oppose wasteful spending and fight to keep taxes among the lowest in America. He is opposed to a state income tax in any form.
