Tennessee’s 7th District is on the brink of a political earthquake. Democrat Aftyn Behn openly declares her contempt for Christianity and has proudly filmed herself harassing ICE officers—and she wants to represent you in Congress.
Combat veteran Matt Van Epps is stepping into the ring to put an end to her radical antics. A lifelong Christian, husband and father, Van Epps flew helicopters over Iraq and Afghanistan, demonstrating real leadership under fire. Now he’s determined to defend Tennessee, protect our faith and secure our borders.
Behn’s contempt for faith isn’t a fringe comment—it’s at the center of her campaign. She’s mocked Christianity, telling constituents she “hates” her own church community. That disdain for religious freedom flies in the face of our most cherished American values.
She took it even further by stalking ICE agents on public streets and recording herself taunting the men and women who enforce our immigration laws. Video after video shows Behn cornering officers, smirking as she films them—then posting those confrontations online as if it’s a badge of honor. Such reckless behavior alone disqualifies her from the halls of Congress.
But Behn’s venom toward law enforcement is only half the story. She’s embraced the Democratic Socialists of America, promising tax hikes that will crush working families and send Tennessee’s cost of living through the roof. Her agenda would balloon the size of government, push our economy toward stagnation and punish the very people who power our communities.
In stark contrast, Matt Van Epps offers a clear, commonsense alternative. He’ll fight for religious liberty, low taxes and secure borders. He knows that American prosperity depends on free markets, not socialist handouts. Born to parents who rose from humble roots—his mother from poverty, his father drafted into Vietnam—Van Epps embodies the American dream. Thanks to their sacrifice, both he and his brother graduated from West Point, took leadership roles in the military and now stand ready to serve once more.
This race isn’t about petty politics. It’s about choosing a representative who will protect our values, defend our communities and champion the working families of Tennessee’s 7th District. If you reject anti-Christian bigotry, border chaos and socialist overreach, get out and vote for Matt Van Epps on Election Day. He’ll fight for you—and he’ll win.
