It’s strange the TN Republican leadership would take such a position. The referendums would require enabling legislation from both the council and the state before it takes effect. Essentially, the referendums are a poll of the people. As elected leaders, isn’t that what we want?

A city holding a referendum so that the people can speak does not break state law. To have the threat of Memphis' portion of sales taxes withheld because they made a choice to "hear" the thoughts of their citizens on a state policy that is harmful to their communities is

Today at 10:20am the Memphis City Council filed a lawsuit against the Shelby County Election commission since the commission took the gun reform referendums off the ballot. My money is on the city council 😌
