NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Republican lawmakers in Tennessee cleared a significant hurdle Tuesday on a proposal to permit some trained teachers and faculty who haven’t worked in law enforcement to carry handguns on school grounds, a move that would mark one of the state’s biggest expansion of gun access since a deadly elementary school shooting last year.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Legislation designed to undo police traffic stop reforms set in place after the fatal beating of Tyre Nichols by officers last year is now headed to Republican Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee’s desk, despite emotional pleas to abandon the measure from Nichols’ family and accusations that the proposal is “extreme government overreach.”
