In government and politics, Republicans held on to the state’s 7th Congressional District in a nationally watched special election, as Trump-backed Matt Van Epps won the U.S. House seat, preserving the GOP’s slim majority in Washington, according to ABC News and NBC News. ABC News reports that Democrats still narrowed the margin in this traditionally deep-red district, turning it into an unexpected battleground ahead of the 2026 midterms. In Nashville, lawmakers and advocates continue to digest a major July 2025 state law that explicitly protects access to IVF and contraceptives while also broadening conscience protections for health providers, according to the National Women’s Law Center and Nashville station WKRN.
On the business and economic front, Nashville’s development boom shows no sign of slowing. The Nashville Business Journal reports that local firm Vastland Company has secured a 130 million dollar construction loan for the 25-story VOCE Hotel and Residences in Midtown, a mixed-use project with luxury condos, hotel suites, office space, and high-end amenities, with construction set to begin this month. In agriculture, the Tennessee Department of Agriculture says six agribusinesses have been awarded AgTrack grants to expand grain elevators, meat processing, feed mills, and other value-added operations across rural and urban counties, supporting jobs and market access for farmers.
Community news is also active. The Tennessee Board of Regents has approved more than 124 million dollars in higher-education construction contracts, including a new 4 million dollar parking structure at Middle Tennessee State University to improve campus access and support enrollment growth, according to WGNS Radio’s coverage of board actions. The Tennessean reports that Tennessee State University is exceeding its targets to reduce its budget deficit after a 96 million dollar state funding agreement, with money redirected to stabilize finances and upgrade campus infrastructure. At the K–12 level, Loudon County Schools say construction is underway on multiple projects, from a new gym and foundations at elementary campuses to a career and technical education building at Loudon High School and site work for a new school, underscoring ongoing investment in local education facilities.
Weather is demanding close attention. The Tennessean and Knoxville News Sentinel report that multiple waves of Arctic air tied to a shifting polar vortex are bringing hard freezes, wintry mixes, and pockets of snow and ice across parts of West, Middle, and East Tennessee, with forecasters warning of slick roads, especially on bridges and overpasses.
Looking ahead, listeners should watch how Van Epps’ victory shapes Tennessee’s role in the 2026 midterms, track Nashville’s big-ticket developments along the East Bank and in Midtown, and monitor further winter weather rounds that could affect travel and energy demand across the state.
