  • Somebody asked me what makes me different from the other folks in this race. Among a lot of other reasons, I gave three things. Here's what I mean by each one. First, I'm a man who's spent his life building things. I built Carpenters Trusst from the ground up, hired good people from all over the globe, and I made a point to hire women, because the trades have been closed off to them too long and there's a lot of women out there who want that work. The trades built the middle class in this c

  • Who is Tim Lanier? Swipe through and I'll introduce myself. I believe the REAL work starts at home, I'm a Husband, Dad, Son, Brother, and Uncle. I'm a Christ follower, a carpenter, and a business owner. I build things to last and I am building something special in the 4th Congressional District of TN. Here's what I'll fight for in Washington: → Affordable housing, because too many folks are working hard and still can't get a foot in the door. The B4 Act tackles it at the source and builds

  • This one covers a lot, so grab a coffee. A few highlights. On housing: it's expensive because we don't have enough skilled labor. Construction sites run inefficient, and that costs everyday consumers close to $11 billion a year. Train more people in the trades and housing gets cheaper. That's the whole idea behind my Big Beautiful Building Bill. On healthcare: too many counties in rural Tennessee don't even have a hospital or a minute clinic. That's unacceptable. Nobody should have to choose b

  • I'm a builder. I know this stuff. Our new builds suck because standards keep dropping, and nobody's doing anything about it. That changes now. I've got the Big Beautiful Building Bill, and it fixes the real problem. We don't have a housing crisis, we have a labor crisis. Train people right, and affordable housing follows. We can only build our way out of the housing crisis but we have to build smarter. Early voting is open now! Love y'all, Tim #TeamLanier #TN04 #CommonSenseDemocrat #Bui

  • Voting rights and women's rights. Those are the two I'll go to the mat for, every single day in Congress. Gerrymandering is now open for business. The states can redraw their Federal districts at any time and they can look however the state leaders want em too. Congress MUST appoint an independent council and take this power back from the States or it'll be tough for the States to stay united. If we lose the right to vote, nothing else matters. Our democracy crumbles. And when I say women's
