State Rep. Antonio Parkinson has become known as a fierce fighter for the people of Tennessee. He has been vocal in the protection of the citizens of Memphis when under attack from others across the state. 

State Rep. Antonio Parkinson has authored and passed laws that have protected working men and women, removed violent criminals from our communities along with laws that have opened the door for new businesses and careers to be started. 

He has been named Legislator of the Year four times by different organizations with one of the awards being Regional Legislator of the Year by the National Black Caucus of State Legislators. 

He has fought for women to receive equal pay, affordable health insurance for all Tennesseans, a livable wage for all and quality education for our children and adults. 

"I was considered the under dog growing up and now I fight for those that feel as if they don't have a voice."

"When I first ran, I ran on STRONG, DECISIVE LEADERSHIP". I still believe in that mantra and it is just that that has allowed us to get the wins we have received in a Republican controlled legislature".

About my birthday yesterday...

First let me thank everyone for the birthday wishes that were sent to me via text, calls and social media. 

Having my 50th birthday yesterday really gave me a chance to reflect on my life and how blessed I am to be here. There have been so many of my friends that did not make it to this age. This also reminded me of why I fight for the lives of our youth and for them to have an equal chance at not just making it to 50 years but also success in this life. 

We still have a ways to go. That is why I need your help in getting re-elected. I want to continue to fight to improve the plight of the young people that come from communities like the ones I came from. 

You can be a major part of that effort with your campaign contribution. 


I thank you in advance for your support.
