Eva is also committed to investing in what matters most; creating a new technical and vocational high school in Old Hickory, improving roads and infrastructure across the district, and supporting License Plate Reader systems on state roads through Nashville to help law enforcement cut crime and keep communities safer. With a focus on common-sense solutions and responsible leadership, Eva Romero is ready to fight for the people of this community every day.
About District 60
and Your State Representative
Tennessee’s State House of Representatives is made up of 99 elected representatives, each serving a two-year term and representing approximately 70,000 residents. Your State Representative is your direct voice in the Tennessee General Assembly in Nashville voting on laws that affect your schools, your roads, your taxes, your safety, and your community every single day.
District 60 covers the eastern Davidson County communities of Old Hickory, Hermitage and Donelson a growing and diverse district that has long deserved a stronger, more focused voice in state government. As your State Representative, Eva Angelina Romero would serve on committees, sponsor legislation, and fight every session to make sure the people of District 60 are never an afterthought in Nashville again.
Issues & Priorities
Standing Up for Seniors & Taxpayers
For too many families in Old Hickory, Hermitage and Donelson especially our seniors rising property taxes and soaring home values are making it harder and harder to stay in the homes they have spent a lifetime building. Tennessee’s property tax relief and freezing programs help seniors on fixed incomes protect themselves from rising tax bills, but too many qualifying residents don’t even know these programs exist.
Better Roads Now
The families of Old Hickory, Hermitage, and Donelson know what it means to sit in traffic. Congestion at critical intersections like Bell Road and Elm Hill Pike, and Lebanon Road and Old Hickory Boulevard, has become a daily frustration and relief has been nowhere in sight. Eva is calling for a new technical/vocational high school in old hickory. Not only do young people need skills for well-paid careers, the local school will greatly reduce traffic that would otherwise be going to other schools like McGavock High.
Safer Streets for Our Families
Our neighborhoods deserve to feel safe. In 2024, the Hermitage Precinct which covers Old Hickory, Hermitage and Donelson was consistently among the worst precincts in Davidson County for violent crime, property crime and homicides, with violent crime rising 4.4% while most other precincts saw declines. Families in District 60 should not have to accept this as normal. Eva will propose License Plate Readers (LPR) be deployed on state roads through our community. She will introduce a law that prevents any mayor denying county police private LPR data, as is the case in Davidson County.
