Clean energy PAC backs challenger in Tennessee House primary
Invest in Tomorrow Coalition PAC, funded by clean energy investors, is spending nearly $700,000 to back Republican challenger Charlie Hatcher against Trump-endorsed Rep. Andy Ogles in a newly redrawn Tennessee district. The ads highlight Hatcher as pro-gun, pro-life and pro-Trump, and former Gov. Bill Haslam has endorsed him, while the Freedom Caucus Fund has spent roughly $285,000 supporting Ogles. The PAC previously spent more than $650,000 against Rep. Chip Roy and lists donors including Chris Larsen and Jigar Shah. The activity signals sustained clean-energy investor engagement in GOP primaries and possible implications for energy subsidy policy and House composition.
