Sen. Corker in Oak Ridge on Tuesday

U.S. Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., will be in East Tennessee on Tuesday, and he will make stops in Knoxville and Oak Ridge.

Corker is scheduled to be at the Oak Ridge Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday afternoon. His brief visit to the Chamber will be with Millennium Partners only.

“At events in Knox and Anderson counties, Corker will discuss his work to solve the big problems facing our country,” a press release said. “In Knoxville, Corker will address family business owners and entrepreneurs at an event hosted by The Legacy Centre, an organization working to grow companies through educational programs, peer advisory groups and professional resources. Later, Corker will address business and community leaders at an event hosted by the Oak Ridge Chamber of Commerce.”

The Knoxville stop is scheduled for Tuesday morning.

Corker was re-elected to his second term in the U.S. Senate last November. He is ranking member of the foreign relations committee and an active member of the banking committee.

Corker was a businessman before serving as Tennessee’s commissioner of finance and as mayor of Chattanooga.
