An understandably angry and emotional REP. @JasonLPowell, who reps the district ANTIOCH HIGH is in, offered an amendment to make schools safer👇🏽😳 Republicans predictably killed it — and Speaker @CSexton25 threatened the gallery for reacting. #LeesVoucherScam

WATCH: Rep. Aftyn Behn & @JasonLPowell push back on House Republicans who made their first priority action of the entire session a resolution against trans athletes — of which there have been 0 in Tennessee.

Just today, I wrote a column on the tragic murder of Alyssa Lokits at a South Nashville greenway. It was important to mention @JasonLPowell 's letter to @freddieoconnell @MNPDNashville Chief Drake and Parks Director Odom call for more public safety measures. tennessean.com/story/opinion…
Senator: I write about many different issues. Last month, for example, I celebrated your Senate Bill 1137/House Bill 1229 on housing with @CalebHemmer as an important tool in addressing the housing crisis. tennessean.com/story/opinion…

The @brotherjones_ @Justinjpearson @VoteGloriaJ clapback about already being in the Well was an instant classic @thetnholler.
JUST NOW: Ref-pantsing @tnhousegop caucus chair @JeremyFaison4TN taunts @brotherjones_ & @Justinjpearson — saying they’ll never pass a bill. (Also likely talking to @VoteGloriaJ)

I would like to know @VUChancellor what state law or local ordinance was broken. This is an outrageous silencing of an open and free press!

IF the #voucherscam passes then the moment after the vote is taken all the members who voted for it will be expendable.
I watched the Dems do this with a state income tax. AFP may win GOP primaries, but does that come at the expense of the supermajority?

I will always fight for love and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community.
WATCH: “This is targeting students. The confederate flag can be flown but a pride flag can’t be displayed—I want to send a different message: Tennessee is welcoming & loving to all students.” Republicans (+ Johnny Shaw) killed @JasonLPowell’s amendment to Bully @GinoBulso’s bill
