Today, Rep. Phil Roe, M.D. (R-Tenn.) released the following statement after Senator Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) announced he will not be seeking re-election in 2020: Tennessee and our country have been blessed to have been represented by Lamar Alexander. As Governor, Secretary of Education, University of Tennessee's President, presidential candidate and U.S. Senator, he has exemplified what it means to be a public servant by working tirelessly to make our state and nation the best it can be. I still remember his first campaign for governor, where he walked across the state in his signature red-and-black flannel and inspired many in Tennessee to become Republicans. He is not only a great man, but a loving father and husband to his wife and family. Knowing the senator, I'm sure there is still a lot that will be accomplished, and I look forward to continuing to work with him over these next two years. I want to thank him for all his hard work, and I wish Lamar, Honey and their family the best. f t # e | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
