Glad to have State Senators Senator Heidi Campbell and Majority Leader Jack Johnson on #GMN as the legislative session comes to an end. Lots to talk about: arming teachers, school vouchers, and finding common ground WKRN News 2. #tnleg
#tnleg Legislators operate under a Constitutional mandate to balance the Budget each session. As such, it requires State Beurocrats to operate within our financial means.
The way Speaker Mike Johnson operates we need such mandate amended into our Federal Constitution

What say you Gov. Bill Lee ? What say you TN Attorney General ? What say you Rusty Crowe ? What say you Representative Rebecca Alexander ? What say you Jeremy Faison? What say you Jack Johnson? What say you Speaker Cameron Sexton? What say you Johnny Garrett? #TNLeg #TNGOP
Despite his failure in getting a universal school voucher bill through the #Tennessee General Assembly, Gov. Bill Lee says he isn’t giving up on the controversial effort and plans to renew his push in 2025. #TNleg pro.stateaffairs.com/tn/education/l…
I wish SuperTalk 99.7 WTN Brian Wilson stop calling #tnleg D52 “heavily democratic”
Antioch & East Nashville is - but the rest of D52 is reasonable minded independents & conservatives.
If u look at individual boxes - TNGOP could have took them w/ few as 2-3 votes if they turned out🤦♀️
had the best time tonight hearing from Allie Phillips and KarenReynoldsVote about their campaigns and vision for a #TennesseeForAll .
I can't wait for them to join me at the #TNLeg !!! 💖
Matt Anderson Justin Jones Sadly
Those of us in actual district don’t see Rep. Justin Jones as “effective” - well unless u mean, in service to his own narcissism🤷♀️
Those is us in D52 are becoming very concerned re: just how “effective” our voices can be represented, when his goal seems to be alienating

🚨 Gov. Bill Lee has signed HB 2100 sponsored by Rep. Rep. Jason Zachary and Jack Johnson!
With this new law, Tennessee has taken the lead against politicized, discriminatory debanking.
Senior Policy Fellow Eric Bledsoe's latest for Daily Caller. ⤵️ #TNleg dailycaller.com/2024/05/03/eri…
From the Gov. Bill Lee's failed voucher plan to childish culture-war legislation to dismissing what law enforcement experts say about arming teachers, MAGA Republicans in the #TNLeg made on thing clear: they don't care what you think.

.TN Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti has positioned himself as a tenacious fighter against constitutional challenges against state laws and what the Republican sees as federal intrusion into the prerogatives of #Tennessee and other GOP-led states. #TNleg pro.stateaffairs.com/tn/economy-bus…
Cordell Hell TN Perspective I leave Iowa to Iowans
I care re: child labor trafficking in TN. I expect better from TN Dept of Labor & Workforce & wonder why #tnleg hasnt held hearings re: labor trafficking of minors - esp that took place under Lockdown👀
Ex: 15 y/o here 10 days & hired as “BeamWalker” died on Vandy Campus😳
Donna 💙💙 Jeremy Faison It happen w/ my LGBTQ son
I told Teacher point blank - he’s a gay nerdy dude, who’s trying to to “ungay” himself bcz no middle schooler wants to be different
Also it MY job teach him coping skills to be comfortable in his own skin

Period👀
