Representative Rebecca Alexander, a Tennessee lawmaker, recently addressed several topics on her social media account. Her posts covered reminders about Daylight Saving Time, a message for International Women’s Day, and recognition of Tennesseans with developmental disabilities.
On March 7, 2026, Alexander reminded constituents about the upcoming time change: “Daylight Saving Time starts tomorrow. Move your clocks ahead one hour and enjoy the extra daylight tomorrow evening.”
The following day, she acknowledged International Women’s Day by highlighting the influential women in her life and extending support to all women: “I’ve been blessed to be surrounded by strong women my whole life. My mom led our family with love, my sisters who are always beside me, and my two beautiful daughters. On International Women’s Day, I celebrate every woman who breaks barriers and lifts others up along the way.”
On March 9, 2026, Alexander used her platform to promote awareness during Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month: “March is a time to honor fellow Tennesseans with developmental disabilities. If you know a family with a loved one who has a developmental disability, go out of your way to offer them a helping hand and show them some extra love this month.”
International Women’s Day is observed annually on March 8 as an occasion to recognize women’s achievements worldwide and advocate for gender equality. Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month is marked each March in the United States to increase public awareness of the needs and contributions of individuals with developmental disabilities.
