PLEASE SHARE -

No matter our country of origin or how much money we make, Tennessee is our home and all of us deserve safety, dignity, and the freedom to build a good life for our families. Tennessee Republican Supermajority and their slate of hateful legislation is a threat to us all. This bill is going to be heard THIS TUESDAY at 10:30am CT in the House Department & Agencies subcommittee. Whether you’re in Memphis or Maryville, we need your support in telling our legislators that Tennessee if our home - and we’re not going anywhere!

TADP invites you to join with us for this virtual event sponsored by Ohioans To Stop Executions on Tuesday, Feb. 17th!

This outstanding panel of advocates, who have led successful repeal efforts in other states, will share lessons learned from their work. Though Tennessee is not as close to legislative repeal as Ohio, we will benefit from this conversation as we look to create the grassroots capacity and political environment necessary to achieve repeal in Tennessee in the coming years.

We hope you will participate in this important conversation on Tuesday, February 17, at 5 p.m. CT/ 6 p.m. ET in lieu of our regular TADP meeting.

You can register for the event at the link in our bio/comments.

P.S. Our next TADP monthly meeting will be on Tuesday, March 17, at 6:30 p.m. CT/ 7:30 p.m. ET. We will spend that meeting preparing for TADP’s Justice Day on the Hill on March 31.

Today, SB1424 (known as the Anti-Drag Queen bill) was taken off notice in Senate Committee. This doesn’t mean the bill can’t ever come back... but it is a VERY good sign that it won’t be successful this year! This is DIRECTLY due to the hard work of our advocacy team - thank you Tom Lee! All of us here at the Tennessee Pride Chamber will, as always, continue watching vigilantly and keep you posted as legislative session continues.
