After leading a legal battle to display the Ten Commandments in a local courthouse in 2003, Congressman Hice launched a conservative talk radio program. As the host of “The Jody Hice Show”, he reached 400 stations daily until being elected in 2014. Additionally, in 2008, Congressman Hice was a founding leader of the “Pulpit Freedom Sunday” movement, which today organizes thousands of pastors across the country to openly challenge the Internal Revenue Service’s ban on political free speech from the pulpit.

Congressman Hice took office in 2015 as the Representative of Georgia’s 10th Congressional District and is the Communications Chair of the House Freedom Caucus, leading the group’s messaging efforts on a weekly podcast.
