Sen. Marsha Blackburn Celebrates Launch of Independent Women’s Network Tennessee Chapter
NASHVILLE, T.N. – Today, Independent Women’s Network (IWN), the national grassroots community activist arm of Independent Women’s Voice, celebrated the launch of its Clarksville, Tennessee Chapter with a special guest appearance by Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN). This chapter represents IWN’s first chapter in Tennessee and its 13th chapter across the country, representing more than 19,000 IWN members.
The Chapter Leader is Tennessean Callie Cook. Cook, born and raised in Clarksville, is the wife of a small business owner and farmer and the mother of four children. Previously a school counselor for the Clarksville Montgomery County School System, Cook is a fierce voice for school choice and an active participant at school board meetings over the past year.
“Raising our children to honor God, Family and Country is the most important and challenging task of a lifetime. Now is the time to fight for these values,” Cook said. “I’m leading the new Tennessee Chapter of Independent Women’s Network to start a movement of people in the area who are deeply concerned about what is being exposed and taught to our children. We are ready and taking action to return control to parents. Moms who are ready to put their money where their mouth is, get involved. We seek to learn more about different education options, support educational freedom and hold our school districts accountable.”
“Women should always have a seat at the table to weigh in on the important issues that are affecting their lives and the lives of their families,” Sen. Blackburn told the dozens of women in the room. “The work that Independent Women’s Network is doing to bring like-minded women together and give them the tools to meaningfully impact their communities is so important. Tennessee women will be empowered to get involved and have access to even more tools to make a positive difference thanks to the launch of the Clarksville Chapter of Independent Women’s Network.”
“We heard from thousands of women from across the country who said they wanted a community where they could connect, share ideas, and take actions,” said IWN President Carrie Lukas. “That’s why we launched Independent Women’s Network last year. We are thrilled to have our first chapter in the great state of Tennessee and we look forward to standing shoulder-to-shoulder with them to turn our economy around and fight to save our freedoms by countering the woke mob and standing up to cancel culture and out-of-touch bureaucrats.”
