Andy Ogles

Andy Ogles is a grown-up who works in Washington D.C. to help make rules for our country. Before that, he was like a mayor for a town called Maury County in Tennessee. He's also been a businessman, which means he helped run companies.

He's part of a big group called the Republican Party, and he started his job as a U.S. representative in 2023. That means he's one of the people who speaks for Tennessee in the big government building!

Before becoming a big helper in Washington, Andy Ogles was busy in Tennessee. He worked with groups that shared his ideas about how things should be run. Imagine being a leader for a club that wants to help people and make things better.

He was also the boss of a county, which is like being in charge of a whole neighborhood with lots of people and places. He did this for a few years, from 2018 to 2022, getting ready for his bigger job.

Andy Ogles has some very strong ideas. He believes in certain things very, very much. Sometimes, people say he has ideas that are on the far side of the political road. He's known for being a big supporter of Donald Trump. He even sent out Christmas cards that showed his whole family holding rifles! That's a pretty unusual thing to see on a holiday card, isn't it?

Sometimes, people have said that Andy Ogles didn't tell the whole truth about his past. They said he claimed to be a smart person who studied money, like an economist, and also someone who helped keep people safe, like a police officer. But it turns out, those stories might not have been completely true. It's important to always be honest, even when you're trying to do important work!
