What is happening in Tennessee today is truly frightening. Where are Tennessee’s business leaders? Where are the GOP leaders and voters who believe in the right to dissent and in our democracy? Where are the veteran’s groups who put their lives on the line to protect

For those keeping score at home... Things that WILL NOT get you expelled from the TN state legislature: - child molestation - domestic violence - federal investigation - peeing on your colleague's chair Things that will: - fighting to protect kids from gun violence

I love this young man!

So this is a thing. I’m so happy we had the opportunity to talk about the gun violence problem on a national stage. We must act now. These young people (and their parents) want us to act now to save lives!

Tennessee Republicans killed bills to tell eligible high school students how to register to vote and to study the use of college IDs to vote. What’s worse is they did it with secret voice votes and moved TV cameras away from lawmakers so the public couldn’t see how they voted.

“I’m weary. There’s only so many times you can walk in the room and tell someone they’re not coming home tomorrow…I would simply ask you to do something. Because doing nothing, which is what we have been doing, is not working.” – Louisville, Kentucky Dr. Jason Smith

Let’s get it done.

Best news I've heard today! Democrat Adam Frisch, political newcomer who almost unseated Boebert, R-Colo., in 2022, is raising far more money than her campaign in his bid to unseat her in 2024 Send her home, Colorado! 🌊💙 #Fresh #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 usatoday.com/story/news/pol…

When a GOP Tennessee state representative started sexting a 19-year-old intern against her will, instead of removing the representative, Tennessee Speaker Cameron Sexton used taxpayer dollars to force the girl to move back home. He protected the predator and vanished the victim.

The TN House has officially adjourned…too soon. Without doing a damn thing to address the gun violence epidemic plaguing our state and threatening our children. It’s a sad night in Tennessee. We utterly failed our people. #GunSenseNow

"It wasn't mental health that killed these people, it was an automatic rifle with bullets... I'm a former police officer, a former Army officer. These M4s, AR-15s, they've got to get off the streets or this is going to keep happening" - Allen, TX mall shooting witness Steven

As a parent, I worry about sending my little ones off to school. But it doesn't have to be this way. Our public places don't have to become memorials. This keeps happening because of policy choices, including Ted Cruz blocking common sense reforms in the U.S. Senate.
