FAQ

How much am I allowed to contribute?

There are no limits to the amount of money you can contribute to Tennessee Rise. [Click to Donate]
Are contributions public?

Yes. Contributions to Tennessee Rise are publicly disclosed information.
Do my contributions go to candidates?

Contributions do not go directly to a candidate's campaign but would be used to pay for independent expenditures in support of candidates. Your contributions support evidence-based investments in voter turnout and persuasion tactics to benefit candidates, but we are not legally permitted to coordinate with their campaigns. We also recommend making the maximum allowable contribution directly to candidates BEFORE giving to Tennessee Rise.
How will my money be spent?

Resources raised into this PAC will be invested first in fully funding the work of increasing voter engagement and turnout within six priory counties. These counties encompass the 10 most competitive state legislative races required to flip in order to break the MAGA Republican supermajority. It is essential we have the resources to talk to more voters and turn them out because that's the only way we'll break the supermajority and begin to see more wins in Tennessee. These counties encompass 40% of all registered voters statewide, 71% of the Democratic vote, 75% of diverse voters (Black, Indigenous, & people of color), and 46% of voters aged 18-34. The people who can change Tennessee's future are here, we must invest in the work to engage and mobilize these potential voters.
Can I request that my contribution support one specific candidate?

We are unable to earmark a donation to a specific candidate. Our goal is to fully fund the work across all organizations in a way that’s necessary for effective, large-scale programs. If one race or tactic becomes fully saturated, or conditions change, we have the flexibility to re-allocate resources. This helps us be more effective with your investment.
