Jerome Moon is an American politician. A Republican, he represents District 8, encompassing parts of Blount County, in the Tennessee House of Representatives.[1] Moon, the former chair of the Blount County Commission, was appointed the State House seat vacated by Art Swann on December 13, 2017.[2]

Career

In 2023, the Tennessee House voted on motions to remove three sitting Democratic representatives — Gloria Johnson, Justin Jones, and Justin J. Pearson — for disrupting proceedings with a protest as demonstrators were at the capitol voicing their outrage over a mass shooting at a Nashville school that left six dead.[3] Moon voted in favor of all three resolutions: HR 63, to remove Pearson;[4] HR 64, to remove Johnson;[5] and HR 65, to remove Jones.[6] Pearson and Jones were expelled, while Johnson was not.[7]
