Meet
VINCENT DIXIE
Vincent Dixie is a father, husband, small business owner, and State Representative who’s never forgotten where he came from -- or who he’s fighting for.
Raised in Nashville by a single mom who proudly belonged to the Communications Workers of America, Vincent learned early what it meant to work hard, stretch a dollar, and show up for your neighbors.
He had his first job at 14, drove his mom to work by 15, and has never stopped working since -- through high school and college, and ultimately as the founder of multiple small businesses.
Vincent earned a degree in accounting and eventually an MBA while working part-time, paying rent, and helping support his family. He took care of his mom before she passed from cancer, raised two daughters with his wife Ericka (a teacher and school librarian), and built a life rooted in faith and community.
Now serving in the Tennessee State Legislature, Vincent has made his mark as a pragmatic, solutions-focused lawmaker who delivers for working families. He was the first Black leader of a legislative caucus in Tennessee history.
Vincent passed the SEM Advancement Act, reducing discrimination in the education system. He helped lead the charge to suspend Tennessee’s grocery sales tax -- giving folks a break at the register when they needed it most. And when the Speaker of the House was exposed for racism, sexism, and corruption, Vincent stood up and helped remove him.
In Congress, Vincent Dixie will fight to make life more affordable for everyday Tennesseans. That means cracking down on the big corporations that are driving up housing costs, lowering the cost of healthcare and prescription drugs, and ensuring that every family can pay their bills, see a doctor, and live with dignity.
Vincent knows it’s become too expensive to be poor in America, and he’s running to change that.
A commonsense leader, Vincent isn’t interested in partisan games. He’s in this fight to make sure Tennessee families -- in cities, suburbs, and rural communities -- can build a better life.
Because no matter where you live or who you voted for, you deserve a government that works for you.

In Congress, I will fight to make life more affordable for everyday Tennesseans. I’ve passed bipartisan laws in a Republican supermajority. I’ve cut taxes, fought corruption, and built businesses from the ground up.
Now I’m taking that fight to Washington.
