NOW WE MUST…

FUEL THE  JOBS MACHINE

“By continuing to fuel the jobs machine we have created here in Tennessee, we lift up the already high quality of life here in this great state. Jobs are created when businesses put capital at risk, so we have focused on fostering the best, most predictable business environment.” – Governor Bill Haslam

 

We must build on our job growth and economic success by continuing to develop a skilled and trained workforce while providing a low-tax and predictable business environment.
