At the same time that #Nashville was negotiating with the #NFL to host the 2030 #SuperBowl the #TNleg was breaking a #Tennessee law banning mid-census #redistricting (gerrymandering) in order to strip Congressional representation from the majority Black city of #Memphis then strip ALL Democratic Party members of their Committee assignments!
This conversion of the State Capitol into a #KKK ‘Grand Wizard’s Lair’ has sparked a #boycott by #AfricanAmerican athletes from playing in the state.

For folks in #Tennessee , watching the “Roots” miniseries about #slavery in the #UnitedStates is now an act of #resistance to the #racist #BananaRepublicans in the #TNleg.
Especially if you’re a student in #Knoxville , where the book that the miniseries is based on has been banned! https://www.knoxnews.com/story/news/education/2026/05/15/knox-county-schools-bans-historical-novel-roots-by-alex-haley/90080042007/

As of next January, every #Sheriff’s department in #Tennessee will be required to have a 287(g) agreement with #ICE, whether they want to or not.
Yet another law targeting #Memphis. Multiple candidates for Shelby County Sheriff have vowed to eliminate our current 287(g) agreement, even making it a core part of their campaigns.

These cretins aren’t going to stop until they’ve stolen every last ounce of agency and autonomy from our city. And even then they won’t be satisfied. They cannot stand that #Memphis is its own beautiful, vibrant, Democratic self.

Why it matters:
If this passes, districts could legally ignore teachers’ requests to negotiate basic working conditions, shrinking channels for pay and safety advocacy when schools and staff need them most.

A #Tennessee bill that would’ve classified #abortion as ‘murder’ and allowed prosecutors to seek the death penalty for women having the procedure was called for a vote, and “no votes were heard.” I guess it was aborted! 😂 https://www.wsmv.com/2026/03/10/bill-pushing-allow-death-penalty-abortions-tennessee-fails-house-subcommittee/
#BananaRepublican Jody Barrett submitted the bill. He *represents* Hickman and Dickson County, Tennessee in the #TNleg.

@ddayen.bsky.social #TN7 includes Music Row in #Nashville and used to be represented by #Democratic Party member Jim Cooper. It only ‘flipped’ because of partisan #gerrymandering led by a #TNleg Speaker that was pardoned by #DonaldTheDeplorable a day before reporting to prison!!
A vote for #MattVanEppstein is a vote to keep the #EpsteinFiles hidden!
