WHEREAS we believe that political goals are best achieved via cooperative and collaborative partnerships between the Caucus and Grassroots;

WHEREAS communication between partners is a key to efficiency, team building and vision casting;

WHEREAS electing a GOP candidate does not mean he then belongs to the Caucus alone to do with as it pleases without consideration of others who helped elect him;

WHEREAS the Caucus desires Grassroots support during elections: to volunteer, donate and campaign for candidates;

WHEREAS the Caucus places a high value on keeping seats it is entrusted with;

WHEREAS it seems unwise to work to elect Republicans if we will not work to keep them;

WHEREAS primary and general elections are where the Caucus should focus efforts to remove Republicans, except under the most grievous of circumstances;

and, WHEREAS we recognize our enemy is the Democrat Party and their allies as opposed to our allies with whom we may occasionally disagree;

we, the undersigned request the TN GOP Caucus cease efforts to enact redistricting plans requiring the automatic loss of GOP incumbents, including plans pitting two incumbents against each other in a primary.

We worked hard to seat these incumbents and oppose any Caucus plan to unseat them.

If the Caucus believes such plans to be the best and wisest course, we ask they immediately explain why along with an accounting of alternate options which were considered, and rejected along with the reasons for that rejection.

We do not ask in a spirit of defiance or challenge. We ask in a spirit of cooperation and collaboration recognizing all our contributions are valuable and necessary for success. This seems a reasonable request among allies.
