More than 40% of TN families with children are food insecure. Yet our legislators are wanting to send public dollars to private schools rather than do something like free lunch programs!
A family of four making $56K isn’t eligible for free & reduced school lunch in TN. But with Jack Johnson’s Voucher scheme, a family of four making $56 Million is eligible for 14K in private school subsidies.

Since the 2025 TN legislative session has begun let’s play a game: how many responses will I receive from @JakeMcCalmonTN this year?
Last year it was ZERO! So far in 2025 I’ve sent one email asking to vote against HB1 the “educational freedom act 2025.” Put your guess below!

Not only are you putting our kids in danger by allowing guns in schools and voting for other hateful and harmful legislation @JakeMcCalmonTN but you don’t even have the courage to respond to any communication from those you represent about this.

You know what makes our kids safer- common sense gun reform. Not more fucking guns. You will have the blood on your hands. Im absolutely heartbroken and terrified for my children. @JakeMcCalmonTN @RyanWilliamsTN @CSexton25 @SenJohnson

@JakeMcCalmonTN I beg you vote no to HB1202 today. More guns in schools are not proven to make schools safer from gun violence. If the teachers are busy shooting, who is helping our children get to safety? What if a teacher shoots a child? Someone will die from this legislation.

If you are a parent in America and you still vote for Republicans who refuse to pass common sense gun laws WHAT (and I say this w/ a modicum of respect) THE FUCK are you doing?

ACLU: “I could attend a hearing with a gun on my chest, but not a piece of paper with a picture of a gun on my chest because that’s more disruptive.” 🤔 #KremlinCameronSignBan

One of the worst parts about this “special session” 🙄 to me, is when our leadership (who worship the god of white Christian Nationalism) invoke the name of God or Christ. We do not know the same God or Christ. #imsorryifchurchhashurtyou #tnspecialsession – at Nashville, TN

🚨 JUST NOW: @RepChrisTodd’s MORE GUNS IN SCHOOLS bill FAILS 9-9, and dies
Loud cheers from the audience
This man advocating for gun violence in response to my non violent tweet wanting gun reform is a Catholic Bishop & self proclaimed “Jesus lover.” And some wonder why my gen & gen z turned away from religion. And yes I screenshot b/c I’m worried the “people” w/ guns for me is him.

Overall this is beyond disappointing, as a parent who was holding out hope it is utterly devastating.
Just in: @GovBillLee has issued a proclamation calling for a special legislative session to address topics including safe gun storage, mental health resources & the transfer of juvenile defendants 16 and up to criminal courts- and temporary orders of protection,

Absolutely masterful plan by the @TNGOP to show off their unbridled hubris and corruption for all the nation to see by expelling the two youngest Black lawmakers from the TN House, only to have them immediately reappointed and resoundingly re-elected 🔥🔥🔥
10/10 guys. No notes
