Mayor Chaz Molder Added to DCCC’s Red to Blue Program

COLUMBIA, TN: Today, candidate for U.S. Congress and Mayor of Columbia, Tennessee, Chaz Molder announced being added to the DCCC’s Red to Blue Program. The DCCC’s Red to Blue program is a competitive and selective program that highlights candidates who demonstrate strong fundraising, broad local support, and a viable path to victory. This designation signals that the Molder for Congress campaign is well positioned to defeat Andy Ogles in November and bring Middle Tennessee values back to Congress. 

“Being named to the DCCC’s Red to Blue program is a testament to what this campaign is building from the ground up, right here in Middle Tennessee,” Mayor Chaz Molder said. “The people of the 5th District have made clear they’re ready for a representative who actually shows up, listens, and fights for them. Whether it’s working families in Nashville, farmers and small business owners across our rural communities, or veterans who’ve given everything for this country, I’m running to make sure every corner of this district has a voice in Washington. This recognition reflects the momentum our grassroots supporters have created. I’m incredibly grateful, but we’ve got a lot more work to do between now and November.”

“I represented Middle Tennessee for decades. I know what it takes to earn the trust of the people of the 5th District, and Chaz Molder has it,” said Congressman Jim Cooper. “Being named to the DCCC’s Red to Blue program doesn’t happen by accident. It’s a reflection of the serious, disciplined campaign Chaz has built and the real, meaningful support he’s earned from neighbors, community leaders, and everyday Tennesseans who believe in him. This district is full of hardworking people who want a representative with integrity and a genuine commitment to this community, and that’s exactly what Chaz is. I’m proud to see the national party take notice of what so many of us here at home have known for a while: Chaz Molder is the real deal, and this race is one worth watching.”
