Nashville Mayor Megan Barry endorses Hillary Clinton

[book_worm]

To the surprise of few, Nashville Mayor Megan Barry is backing former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for president.

“Hillary Clinton stands out as the person with the experience, vision and tested leadership necessary to lead our country forward as the next president,” Barry said in a statement Friday announcing her endorsement of the Democratic candidate. “As president, Hillary Clinton will invest in our crumbling infrastructure, expand early childhood education, create more public-transit options and incentivize businesses to create jobs and grow our economy. She will lead the way in fighting for equal pay for women, criminal justice reforms and preventing gun violence that has cost the lives of far too many men, women and children in Nashville.”
