Senator Bill Hagerty, representing Tennessee in the U.S. Senate, shared a series of posts on August 21, 2025, highlighting local industry, national economic appointments, and community businesses.

In his first post at 15:41 UTC, Hagerty visited a steel manufacturing facility in Tennessee. He wrote, “Blue Steel represents the strength of Tennessee manufacturing. Touring their operation shows how advanced steelwork not only supports local jobs but also reinforces critical American industries.” Blue Steel is among several manufacturers contributing to Tennessee’s reputation as a hub for advanced industrial production and job creation.

Later that day at 17:05 UTC, Hagerty commented on President Biden’s nomination to the Federal Reserve Board. He stated, “.@POTUS couldn’t have made a better choice than Stephen Miran to serve on the Federal Reserve’s board. Stephen has served with distinction as chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers. He is the right person for the job. I look forward to his swift confirmation.” The Federal Reserve Board plays a central role in shaping U.S. monetary policy and overseeing financial institutions.

At 18:00 UTC, Hagerty posted about visiting a local eatery: “You can’t beat a lunch at Dad’s Pizzeria. Good food, good people, and a good conversation. Everything that makes Tennessee special.” Local small businesses like Dad’s Pizzeria are considered vital contributors to community life and state economies across the country.

Senator Hagerty has been an advocate for strengthening domestic manufacturing and supporting economic leadership appointments at the federal level.
