I’m Charles Uffelman, and I’m running for City Council to fight for a city we can afford that works for working people.

In the fight for a better future for all Clarksvillians

Chas has a long history of showing up to City Council, working with community members, and supporting civic organizations. He’s fought for our public schools, supported pay raises for Clarksville firefighters, and challenged discrimination face-to-face. As rising home prices put housing out of reach for working people, our downtown lacks the support it needs to be a community center, and traffic continues to worsen, Clarksville needs a Councilmember ready to work for working people. Join the movement to make people the priority!

On The Trail With Chas

I believe in Jacqueline Burton and am supporting her for school board. We need folks who have dedicated their career to our students and public education leading our public schools. Please vote for her in early voting before August 1st or on Election Day August 6th.

Through deep conversations and asking hard questions I've come to know Dexter Mines as a good man who has been working for equity in policing through his career as a law enforcement officer and an adviser for various agencies. At his townhall on Tuesday I asked if he would advocate for a more robust heath unit in our jail to provide more care, and he assured me he would. 

I endorse Independent Dexter Mines to be the next Sheriff of Montgomery County because I believe he will bring about much needed change. I encourage you to do your own research at minesforsheriff.com. You can vote for him in the upcoming County Election. Early voting begins on July 17th and ends on August 1st, with Election Day on Thursday August 6th. 

Make your own decision, check out his website minesforsheriff.com

🇺🇸 America is a beautiful, messy place full of contradictions to our high ideals and people striving for a better world. #clarksville has been part of that story for 242 of our 250 years. This #4thofjuly we celebrate the rights we fight for every day. Thank you to everyone who defends those freedoms whether you wear a uniform, march in the streets, speak at public meetings, or serve your neighbors at the shelter. #clarksvilletn #america250

This week we lost a hero of the labor movement. Vonda McDaniel (@mcdaniel.vonda) was a worker, a leader, and a fierce advocate for working people. 

She also invested in a generation of young organizers that will continue to shape our state and the labor movement for generations. I’m incredibly thankful for her leadership in my life, her support in my career, her gentle wisdom, and her prophetic honesty. 

Solidarity.

⚠️ ⛔️ It’s too H-O-T T-O G-O outside y’all! Seriously though we are under a dangerous heat advisory most of this week. If you have to be out: hydrate, take breaks, and don’t work alone. 

If you see any of our unhoused neighbors stuck outside please give them this information for the cooling shelters.  If you lose your AC, you can use these shelters too!

LGBT folks have been part of this city for 240 years! I’m proud of our history: the progress and the tragedies. As your city Councilmember I’ll fight for a city that respects our community and is a safe place to work and live for everyone!

Happy #Juneteenth #Clarksville! I’m thankful for my friends @rashidahleverett and @tiffsaysgo for helping make this day a tradition in our community. 

Today I’m remembering the freedom fighters laid to rest at Mt. Olive Cemetery who fought for their own freedom and people they didn’t even know. Today let’s keep fighting for freedom for all.

On #womenveteransday I’m thankful for all the women who have served our country often with less recognition, less support from leadership, and less opportunities for advancement and better pay. Women Vets served a country that doesn’t always serve them in return, and they continue to advocate for fellow veterans long after service. Three women veterans running for office in Montgomery County are having a meet & greet TODAY! Go meet and greet @dr._duana, @mrs.mookduke, @lekeshia_angelique .
