David Sutman Jr is a working-class Tennessean, and political outsider running for U.S. Senate to bring accountability back to Washington. Raised with the values of hard work, personal responsibility, and community, David has spent his career solving real-world problems, and creating opportunities - not navigating political circles.

Like many Tennesseans, he’s watched costs rise while representation has declined.

This campaign isn’t about politics as usual. It’s about rebuilding a government that works for the people again.
