State Representative Johnny Garrett (R-Goodlettsville) announced he raised over $725,000 for his congressional campaign during the third quarter of 2025.
Garrett, who is running for Tennessee’s 6th Congressional District, has over $700,000 of cash on hand going into the end of this year, according to his campaign filing.
More than 1,800 individuals have donated to Garrett, his campaign noted.
The “Johnny Garrett for Congress” campaign committee was registered on July 8.
Garret said he is “grateful” for the support he has received in the state’s 6th Congressional District.
Since launching his campaign in July, the congressional candidate stated he has “traveled across the district to conservatives who are ready for a proven fighter in Washington to stand shoulder to shoulder with President Trump.”
“I’m battle tested and ready to win,” he said.
Garrett noted he is proud of the accomplishments he has achieved in the Tennessee General Assembly.
During the 2025 legislative session, Garrett introduced House Bill 1039, which prevents Tennessee homeowners from experiencing title fraud on electronically filed deeds by specifying the people and entities allowed to submit electronic records to a county register. This bill became law in March.
Another bill he introduced this year was House Bill 910, which eliminated the Tennessee Human Rights Commission. Governor Bill Lee signed this into law in May. The Tennessee Attorney General’s Office now handles civil rights complaints.
Garrett said Tennessee has “shown” the rest of America what “real conservative leadership looks like.”
‘I’m ready to bring a little Tennessee grit to DC. Thank you to everyone who has stood with us from the start. With your support, we will keep TN-06 RED!” he added.
Garrett told The Michael Patrick Leahy Show that the first bill he would introduce in Congress would be to ban life-altering sex change procedures for minors nationwide.
The congressional candidate has picked up an endorsement from Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs.
Tennessee’s 6th Congressional District will have a new representative after John Rose announced he is running for governor in March.
Van Hilleary, a former Tennessee representative, also announced he is running for the 6th Congressional District.
A Democrat has not held this congressional seat since 2011.
