Family Action of Tennessee is a public policy advocacy and lobbying organization dedicated to preserving and strengthening Tennessee’s families. Former state Sen. David Fowler serves as president. Family Action works alongside the Family Action Council of Tennessee to promote and defend a culture that values the traditional family, for the sake of the common good.

 

Why two organizations? Because the IRS limits what tax-exempt groups like Family Action Council of Tennessee can say about bills and candidates. On the other hand, advocacy groups like Family Action can speak more freely, though at a financial disadvantage. So both team up to educate and inspire Tennesseans to greater involvement in the issues that threaten our state.

 

Welcome to Family Action.  Family Action of Tennessee is dedicated to preserving and strengthening the family as the union of one man and one woman and their children, and the promotion of a culture grounded in those Judeo-Christian values in which the family can flourish.  We seek to do this through both education and advocacy.

Our focus is on the family, because we believe the family of today is the portal through which all future generations must pass. A strong, vibrant, and healthy future for our citizens is grounded in the strength, vitality, and health of today's families. Families are the cornerstone of any nation, state and community, and, as the family goes, so goes those communities of people.

We hope that you will find Family Action to be a resource for your family and your community. Over the coming months, we will build a site to which you may come for information and help you on a variety of topics related to the family and culture. We also hope to be a ready resource for churches and other organizations that want to know what is going on in our state that will affect the health of the family and our cultural life together  --  and what they can do impact them positively.

We hope you will take some time to visit our site as it develops.  Please visit us regularly. Let us know if we can be of assistance help  to you.
