Rep. Johnson is launching her campaign to gain the Democratic Party’s nomination to run against the incumbent Marsha Blackburn, who was elected to the Senate in 2019.
As the Democratic representative for District 90 in Knoxville, Johnson recently made headlines by joining Rep. Justin Pearson (District 86, Memphis) and Rep. Justin Jones (District 52, Nashville) on the floor of the State House chamber and encouraging protestors to fight for gun reform during the session.
Team Marsha responded to the announcement in the typical MAGAt BS-Woke! Drink!
