Every year Rep. Dunn sends out thousands of surveys to his constituents about pending and current issues. He reads each one and follows up with phone calls to those who have comments and concerns.
“When I think
of courage and honesty, I think of Bill Dunn.”
–-Congressman Jimmy Duncan
“I love Bill
Dunn’s idea for addressing concerns over the sunshine law. In
case you missed it, the Knoxville Republican representative has
suggested setting up Internet chat rooms where local public officials
could discuss – and even deliberate – business outside of
public meetings.
Citizens could follow the dialogue online.”
--Jack McElroy, editor of the Knoxville News Sentinel
“It’s
hard not to like Bill Dunn… He is very down-to-earth, sharp,
and interested in good policy… He is the only one I have heard
in the legislature that is addressing the question of how education
can be improved systematically.”
--Dr. Martin D. Kennedy,
Middle Tennessee State University, blogging about legislators
“We've been
privileged to know Bill and Stacy even before he ran for his first
term. As soon as we found out he was running for the 16th district,
we jumped at the opportunity to work to help get him elected.
Bill's outstanding character, commitment to integrity, exemplary life
with his family, and willingness to work hard made us not just want
to vote for him, but go door to door and wear those gorgeous orange
shirts to get the word out. Elect Bill Dunn and you will sending a
statesman to Nashville, not a politician. He understands his role
to serve and represent the people of his district and he does it
without compromising his values.”
--Mike and Linda
Halley, Ball Camp Residents
“As an
advocate for Long Term Care, I couldn’t have done any of the
work I did without the help and guidance of Bill. I started by just
writing him a simple letter of concern as a volunteer in the area and
he took me through the whole process step-by-step and showed me how
to make my concerns heard and acted upon in Nashville. He always did
what he said he was going to do. I could not be happier with having
Bill in Nashville. I had never been involved in politics before, but
now I will do whatever
I can to keep Bill Dunn in office.”
--Pat Wininger, retired school teacher, advocate for assisted living,
and Fountain City resident
“Many thanks
to Bill for all of his hard work on behalf of Halls Memory Gardens.
He worked diligently on our behalf with many visits and calls to
other representatives regarding our situation, while always keeping
us informed of the progress being made.I will be voting for
Bill in the next election as will many others that know of his
dedication to serving the community”
--Bobbie Woodall,
Liaison to Halls Memory Gardens
“Bill has
always been a conscientious representative for our community. He is
always present for community events.”
--Mike Gordon,
Pharmacist in Karns
“LEAF is
honored to count Bill Dunn as our friend and supporter in our effort
to stop mountain top removal coal mining. Stewardship of the earth
as a faith issue is new for some, but he understood long before LEAF
came along. In fact he was our only spontaneous co-sponsor. Bill
Dunn is a wise and respected legislator who generously shares his
expertise with us. Representative Dunn worked hard and effectively
for our bill last session and we expect he will be key to passing the
bill next session.
He's a man of conviction.”
