Climbing the Charts sat down with Senator Heidi Campbell – a Nashville native, former Mayor of Oak Hill, the first Democrat to flip a Tennessee State Senate Seat since 2006, and now a leading candidate to become Music City’s next mayor!
Heidi shares her thoughts with us about what it takes to lead in a fiscally responsible, data-based, and compassionate way. She can boast being the only former musician and songwriter in the field (spoiler alert – her band, The Keep, performed at Lilith Fair!). Heidi tells us what it means to her to be the first female Mayor of Oak Hill and the first female elected to the State Senate as the State Senator for Tennessee District 20, also making her the first Democrat to flip a State Senate seat since 2006. Heidi also recently ran a very competitive race for Tennessee's Fifth Congressional District but was defeated by Republican Andy Ogles in a gerrymandered contest that you’ll learn more about in today’s episode.
Senator Campbell now aims to win her fifth political race, the 2023 election for Mayor of Nashville. Today’s discussion covers a wide range of topics (including Heidi’s take on solid waste, affordable housing, public education, and gun reform) and delves into the power that the Mayor of Nashville has to effect broader change – and so much more!
