About
Elected: 2010 (8th term)
- Background: Physician, Freedom Caucus aligned
- Committees: Armed Services, Agriculture
- District: Middle Tennessee, rural, includes Murfreesboro and Tullahoma
Bio DesJarlais is a long-serving Republican from rural middle Tennessee, aligned with the Freedom Caucus (conservative group within House Republicans) on foreign aid and generally skeptical of overseas commitments. Despite his Armed Services seat, his voting has moved against Ukraine aid packages.
Ukraine Record
- Opposed recent Ukraine aid packages
- No Ukraine-focused bill sign-ons
- Voting has shifted against aid since 2022
Advocacy Insight
- Ask them to: Sign onto the REPO Act (H.R. 5835), which uses frozen Russian assets to rebuild Ukraine at zero cost to American taxpayers
- Why it works with them: Russia pays not America, anti-oligarch asset seizure, sanctions enforcement, and Tennessee agricultural impact are the only frames he will consider
- Your connection: You are a Tennessee farmer affected by global market disruption or part of the Arnold Air Force Base community
- Avoid: Leading with aid framing, blank-check language, or NATO expansion
Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP]. I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do. Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104? Thank you.
