Clay Faircloth listening to residents of Tennessee's 4th district

Meet Clay Faircloth

Clay Faircloth is running for Congress in Tennessee’s 4th district to bring independent leadership and common sense back to Washington. Under the banner of Faircloth for Congress / Clay Cares, he is focused on putting people before party, listening first, and building solutions that actually work for families, small businesses, and local communities across the district.

Clay believes that public service is a responsibility, not a career. He is committed to fighting corruption and political games that leave everyday Tennesseans behind. His priorities are clear: improve public safety in every community, expand access to quality and affordable healthcare, and protect the freedoms and opportunities that allow our district to thrive. Clay knows that when government is accountable and transparent, trust can be restored and progress becomes possible.

As an independent voice, Clay will work with anyone who is serious about solving problems for the 4th district. He is running to represent every constituent—not special interests, not party insiders, and not national talking points. Clay is ready to roll up his sleeves, listen to your concerns, and fight every day for safer communities, stronger local economies, better healthcare access, and a future where every person in Tennessee’s 4th district feels seen, heard, and cared for.
