Tim Burchett takes the reins as Knox County Mayor today, after winning 85% of the vote in the primary. Congratulations, Tim!

As state senator, Tim Burchett sponsored PROTECT's "Minutes Count" in the senate. His house cosponsor was Representative Harry Tindell. Tim was instrumental in helping PROTECT pass our "Second Look Commission" bill, which nearly fell victim to partisan gridlock. As time started fading away, Senator Burchett negotiated senate passage. Through the work of Senator Burchett and Representative Tindell, partisanship was set aside. Every member of the Tennessee Senate signed on as cosponsors.

Before being a state senator, Tim served in the House of Representatives. He has a bachelor's degree in criminal justice.
