We have a “Don’t Say Gay” bill worse than Florida’s and about 4 more bills to go along with it-all equally filled with hate. GOP and B list celebrities are accusing librarians and teachers of “grooming” kids.

We have a vigilante abortion bill worse than Texas’. A bill that makes your friends and family $10k if they rat you out. Heck, if you decide to abort your rapists baby, his family and friends can sue you for $10k.

Did you ever imagine TN would give more rights to a violent rapist than a victim of a violent rapist. He can choose the mother of his child, but she can’t choose not to have her rapist’s baby. That is pure evil folks. That is today’s GOP, they don’t believe women are equal.

We have a school funding formula that’s not ready for prime time. It takes away local control, doesn’t have details and is more than 50% rule making we won’t see until AFTER the vote. And counties will love the property tax it will inevitably bring in 3-4 years😬. #whenleeisgone

Then there is State BOE appointee with no public school experience, even evidence he is hostile to public schools. He’s in a lawsuit now as his company sold ammunition to an underage school shooter responsible for the 6th largest school shooting in the country.

You might think that would be it, but we just had a GOP Sen indicted for campaign finance & a Rep indicted for wire fraud-they both resigned. 1 said for “exciting family news”(that’s 1 way to put it.) The other because she was a Christian(a Christian would say no to the felony.)

All signs point to more indictments coming, but all those likely to go down are taken in to the GOP fold. Criming in the GOP makes you leadership it seems. Yet they stand on the floor puffing out their chests screaming at Dems for saying mean things.❄️❄️

Looks like we’re going to visit the whole voucher scandal again and see just who all was involved…I’m pretty sure I know a few of them and they all need to be held accountable. Buying votes that result in hurting our kids is truly evil.

GOP who have left the party have told me it’s because of the meanness. We see it every day in how they govern. While they bring bills making TN tougher for kids, women, black & brown people, teachers, librarians, and LGBTQ folks-they are licking boots of lobbyists & billionaires.

Here is why there is hope, the Democrats care about all Tennesseans. They care about equality, equity, justice, fairness, and we are fighting for it! We are fighting for you, and here is some of the legislation we have brought this session.

More money for teachers and other school salaries. Bills for more social workers and school nurses. Bills to bring smaller class sizes, end corporal punishment and address students mental health.

Of course the supermajority can stop every one of our bills in committee—or sometimes steal them. But we will keep pushing for TN families and we need you to spread the word about who is in Nashville fighting for the kitchen table issues that make life better for your family.

As many national folks are reading this, I want to explain the “voucher felonies.” During a vote on vouchers that take public tax 💵 from public schools, our disgraced former speaker held the board open for 45 minutes while he tried to convince/bribe folks to change their vote.

He offered the rank of General to a Colonel in the National Guard. Rep. Windle said no to the rank, refusing to sell out his district and vote yes. We now have a GOP rep who spoke as a witness. Only the Gov can give this rank. I hope all involved are held accountable.
