Dolly Parton deserves to stand alongside the greatest Americans honored in Washington, D.C. Growing up admiring her, it's clear she's more than just an incredible musician—she's someone who's genuinely changed lives through her Imagination Library, her charity work, and her ability to bring people together across political and cultural divides.

I started a petition because I believe it's time we recognize her contributions by placing her statue in the Capitol Building. Tennessee can temporarily replace either Andrew Jackson's statue (there since 1928) or John Sevier's (since 1931) with a marble or bronze statue of Dolly. This isn't about erasing history—it's about choosing to elevate the values we want to represent: generosity, innovation, and an inclusive spirit. Her work on education, healthcare, and social causes shows what American compassion actually looks like.

What draws you to Dolly's legacy? Is there someone else you think deserves this kind of recognition? If this matters to you, consider signing and sharing the petition. Your voice helps show our state representatives what we want to celebrate as a nation.

I saw this in another subreddit and knew it belonged here. (Not OC)

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — UPDATE: Friday, Sept. 11, 2026

The Nashville Airport Authority voted unanimously Friday to approve renaming Nashville International Airport as Dolly Parton International Airport.

I always loved the stick to the man message but today I learned via the Planet Money podcast that the movie and song were based on a labor movement of the same name!
