This year Nashville has the chance to elect a mayor that will build a sustainable future. David Briley spent seven years on Nashville's Metro City Council working to raise environmental standards and improve public schools ....

A Nashville native, David is committed to public service. Now he's earned Democracy for America's endorsement in the 2007 mayoral race. Please help David in any way you can:

Members of Democracy for Tennessee have worked hard to build a progressive powerhouse across the state. They've worked to elect grassroots progressive candidates in Nashville, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Memphis and everywhere in between. Join Democracy for America and Democracy for Tennessee in supporting David Briley to be the next mayor of Nashville!

Sincerely,
Jim Dean
Chair
