McIntosh noted that "in the U.S. Senate, Blackburn championed tax cuts, eliminated burdensome regulations, and is an outspoken supporter of school freedom."
The Club for Growth highlighted that Blackburn, who is a top Senate ally of President Donald Trump, is a seven-time winner of the organization's Defender of Economic Freedom Award.
TRUMP NOT ON BALLOT BUT FRONT-AND-CENTER IN 2025 ELECTIONS
The group touts that it's the nation's largest conservative super PAC and that in the 2024 cycle, candidates endorsed by the Club for Growth won 79% of their elections.
Blackburn in 2018 became the first woman elected to the Senate from Tennessee. Last November, she won re-election by 29 points in a state that moved increasingly to the right.

If Blackburn wins next year's gubernatorial election, she would make history again, as the state's first female governor.
