Tennessee’s first responders need your support!
Senate Bill 1900 is a critical piece of legislation that strengthens penalties for those who assault firefighters, paramedics, and other emergency personnel while they are on duty. Every day, our members respond to unpredictable, high-risk situations to protect the public. They should never have to face violence without strong protections in place.
This bill is about accountability. It is about safety. And it is about making it clear that Tennessee stands with those who serve on the front lines.
We are calling on all members of the General Assembly to take action and pass SB1900/HB2428.
Protecting first responders should not be a partisan issue. It is a public safety priority. When you protect those who respond to emergencies, you are protecting every community across this state.
Stand with Tennessee’s fire service.
Pass SB1900/HB2428.
