Governor Bill Lee
50th Governor of Tennessee
Governor Bill Lee is a seventh-generation Tennessean. Under his leadership, Tennessee has the fastest-growing economy of all 50 states, with the lowest tax burden in the nation, a top business climate, and a strong workforce strategy that have created more than 170,000 jobs for Tennesseans and generated $32 billion in capital investment since 2019. Tennessee’s unmatched business climate and skilled workforce continue to attract record investment from companies such as Ford Motor Company and SK On, In-N-Out, LG Chem, Oracle, General Motors, and more. Additionally, under Governor Lee’s leadership, Tennessee passed the largest tax cut in state history, strengthened career and technical training, expanded school choice, prioritized a record $1 billion investment in public education, and passed the largest teacher pay raise in Tennessee history.
