Y’all might already know her, but this is Odessa Kelly!
She’s a civil servant, a labor union leader, and the Executive Director of Stand Up Nashville. (And right now, she’s really excited that the Memphis Grizzlies just followed her on Twitter! 🤩)
She’s a proud mom, and in between campaign events, she’s hard at work teaching her kids how to drive — without having a heart attack in the process.
She believes in affordable housing for everyone, a $15 federal minimum wage, good-paying union jobs through the Green New Deal.
And she is the only candidate in TN-05’s congressional race who’s personally experienced the ways the system failed her and her community, and who’s committed to making change.
Odessa Kelly is running to give voice and power to those who have been neglected by the status quo, and already she’s delivered time and time again for the people of Nashville. That’s why we are respectfully asking today:
If you’re ready for a new generation of leaders like Odessa in Congress, will you add your name to show your support for our campaign today? Every signature helps demonstrate the strength of our movement, and it means the world to Odessa to have you on our team.

Ok, now that you’ve met Odessa, meet her opponent: Congressman Jim Cooper.
He supported cuts to Social Security and Medicare, opposed President Obama’s Stimulus Package following the Great Recession, and he voted against struggling Americans receiving stimulus checks.
He also voted against the Americans with Disabilities Act, a bill with broad bipartisan support in Congress. It’s the cornerstone of civil rights for people with disabilities in this country, and he’s the only Congressman still in office to have voted against it.
He’s deep in the pockets of corporate PACs representing weapons manufacturers and real estate developers, and he’ll do everything he can to hold onto power.
Jim Cooper puts balance sheets before people, but we don’t have to stand for it anymore.
Odessa’s got what it takes to win this election, but we can’t do it alone. So we’re politely asking — will you show us some support today?
Taking on Jim Cooper means we’re in for a tough race, and every signature helps demonstrate the strength of our people-powered movement to undecided voters and potential supporters. Will you add your name to join our campaign today?

We’re beyond grateful to have your support — thanks to you, we know we’re going to accomplish some big things.
Let’s do this!
