Tim Burchett believes in the public's right to know, and will oppose efforts to restrict our Freedom of Information Act. As County Mayor he led the effort to eliminate charges for copies of county records.
He feels public bodies should meet in public and not behind closed doors. He believes TVA Board committee meetings should be open to the public...not just the Board meetings. Much of the real business of TVA goes on at the committee level.
