There are three bills to monitor in the Tennessee legislature. You can receive updates directly from http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/mybills/Login.aspx .
- One that I've been telling you about since last year is the constitutional amendment SJR 0127. Yesterday it passed the House (it had been stopped in a committee there in previous years) and is now one big step forward on its way to eventually being on the ballot for citizens to vote on it directly.
- One (HB 1448) has advanced from its subcommittee to full committee. No date shown for the next action. The amendment(s) that were added to it by the subcommittee are not currently shown online, so keep an eye/ear open on that.
- The third (HB 1532) has been deferred in its committee until April 15, so there is time for you to contact the representatives on that committee and ask that they act as you recommend.
It has been recommended to me that we support SJR 0127 and HB 1448 (pending HB1448's amendments), and oppose HB 1532.
