Tennessee governor plans to sign bill that would let teachers carry guns in schools

nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/tennessee-governor-plans-sign-bill-let-teachers-carry-guns-schools-rcna149457

Quick Glance: Tennessee Lawmakers Pass Bill Criminalizing Adults Aiding Minors in Gender-Affirming Care

Tennessee's GOP-controlled Statehouse approved a bill criminalizing adults who help minors receive gender-affirming care without parental consent.

The bill closely resembles language from an anti-abortion trafficking proposal approved by Tennessee Republican lawmakers the day before.

Critics caution about the broad application of the law, ranging from discussing care options with adolescents to aiding in travel to states with looser gender-affirming care restrictions.

Tennessee has enacted more anti-LGBTQ+ laws than any other state since 2015, as identified by the Human Rights Campaign, calling it a staggering assault on their constituents.
