The bill to stop the study of reparations has been TABLED! Congratulations to all of the activists who fought and pushed to stop this bill from coming forward especially Dr. Earle Fisher @Pastor_Earle and the Memphis community! Here’s the final tally!
WATCH: “If we don’t have the courage to protect our citizens, why are we taking that power away from local governments? This makes no sense.” @Justinjpearson & @VoteBobFreeman rip @Jodyforstaterep Barrett’s bill that blocks locals from keeping guns from dangerous people.
When bullies and cowards have power, they abuse it. The response to the gun violence epidemic in our state are laws that arm teachers, honor rifles, lower age requirements & allow long guns in public. These are dangerous laws and scary times in TN. washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/04…
The entire gallery has been cleared in our state house after the Republican Party just passed a bill to arm teachers and the People dissented. This is an awful day for Tennessee, our kids, our teachers, and communities. Instead of protecting kids, thy’ve protected guns AGAIN!
The bill to arm teachers has been placed on the calendar for tomorrow at 1pm. This is dangerous and terrifying. Our schools are going to have more instances of gun violence due to this bad bill. Arming teachers isn’t the answer to legislator’s cowardice! #ProtectKidsNotGuns
As they prepare the pass this budget against all of these objections, @tnhousegop is kicking people out of the gallery.
On the House floor. We’re debating a $52.8B immoral @tnhousegop budget. I asked how much to lift people out of poverty & the best answer I received was that we are giving seniors $20 more a month. Seniors deserve more. Our communities deserve more. Budgets are moral documents!
The People are resisting the ideology of white supremacy and it’s codification in our state’s laws. Racism must be resisted. Legislation banning the study of Reparations is hate-filled and immoral by seeking to silence the history of our Ancestors.
Racist Anti-Reparations bill by the @tnhousegop is now being heard on the TN State House Floor: tnga.granicus.com/player/event/8…
🔥COVENANT MOM: “A confederacy of dunces.” @BethGebhard rips the @TNGOP supermajority on @TheLastWord with @Justinjpearson as they push arming teachers and letting teens open carry assault weapons instead of gun safety. @RyanWilliamsTN’s bill may be in the house this week.
Linda has been fighting for gun sense legislation for years, they want moms and the press out of the gallery while they pass a bill to arm teachers with no liability on the school or school system-no notice to parents of who at school is armed. Liability lies solely w/teacher.

Grateful to the Biden-Harris Administration for using all of their power to stop the sell of firearms without background checks. We must do EVERYTHING to stop unnecessary violence and tragedy from befalling our communities. cbsnews.com/amp/news/biden…
Now the Speaker objects to @Justinjpearson saying exactly what the Speaker said in order to shut him down. Talk about abject fear of facts and truth, these republicans are terrified of truth and justice. #authoritarians
There are some things that really infuriate me. Giving a $700 Million tax cut to corporations is one of those things. A horrible and perfect display of corporate greed governing the @tnhousegop. #ProfitsOverPeople! We need to invest in education, healthcare, and our people!
Please help us to fight the racist and white supremacist legislation seeking to end the study of reparations in TN. Takes 30 seconds to sign on with us and fight back against the @tnhousegop’s hate on such a historic and painful day in our history. change.org/p/stop-tenness…

This makes no sense.” @Justinjpearson & @VoteBobFreeman rip @Jodyforstaterep Barrett’s bill that blocks locals from keeping guns from dangerous people.
The #TNLeg just passed a law to pre-empt all 95 counties from passing Extreme Risk Protection Orders/Red Flag laws. The Cowardice of this legislature is despicable and dangerous! We just had a mass shooting in Memphis. Gun violence is the #1 killer of children in this state.
We must DO something. We will not criminalize ourselves out of this problem. We will need to do our jobs and LEGISLATE and FUND solutions!!!
DIE-IN at the Capitol after @tnhousegop passed the @RyanWilliamsTN arming teachers bill
The entire gallery has been cleared in our state house after the Republican Party just passed a bill to arm teachers and the People dissented. This is an awful day for Tennessee, our kids, our teachers, and communities. Instead of protecting kids, thy’ve protected guns AGAIN!
Chaotic scene outside the House chamber after House members passed legislation allowing trained teachers with district permission to carry guns in classrooms without notifying parents. Student protestors are yelling “blood on your hands!”
@Justinjpearson The GOP doesn’t trust teachers with books, but guns, cool. No prob.
@Justinjpearson This is wrong!! Teachers should not be armed!!
The bill to arm teachers has been placed on the calendar for tomorrow at 1pm. This is dangerous and terrifying. Our schools are going to have more instances of gun violence due to this bad bill. Arming teachers isn’t the answer to legislator’s cowardice! #ProtectKidsNotGuns
Nothing to see here, just a man armed with a long gun roaming the halls of a North Carolina elementary school. wxii12.com/article/greens…
My colleague is arguing for his bill to allow 18 and up to open carry any gun they like through TN streets. It’s an insane bill and becomes even more terrifying when he gives this argument…
Correction from MPD: 8 people shot, 2 deceased. 1 of the remaining 6 shooting victims remains in critical condition.
***INVESTIGATION UPDATE***
Our city is mourning a mass shooting in Memphis (Orange Mound),Tennessee. Two people have passed away & over a dozen have been injured. I’m mad. I’m devastated. I’m heartbroken. As a legislator, I’m not powerless. We aren’t powerless. We must fight for our beloved community.
We must fight for the victims and families. Our days shouldn’t be turned into nightmares because people have easy access to weapons of war. This painful reality is not a permanent one. It is a reality that does not have to be. We must never accept it. We can stop this.
Let's put to bed this narrative that Black people like or can relate to the twice impeached, 91 felony count charged fraudulent corrupt Donald J. Trump because he is being prosecuted. Black people do not have a kinship with criminals. Stepehen A. Smith justifying Trump’s racist…
⚡️ JUST NOW AT THE CAPITOL: “SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!” Chaotic moment leads to a sit-in as a mom sitting silently in the balcony was hauled off by troopers & arrested under #KremlinCameron @CSexton25’s orders, with @Justinjpearson & @brotherjones_ trying to intervene/de-escalate.
🔥PEARSON: “An abhorrent abuse of power by Speaker Sexton. In what world is this ok?? — our government is being run for billionaires, by bullies.” @Justinjpearson reacts to moms being dragged out of the balcony by troopers, explains why he opposed the “immoral” budget.
This is my friend and hero Allison Polidor. Republican lawmakers in Tennessee had her arrested for silently holding a small sign during a public safety hearing; if she’d been holding a gun, they would have given her an award. Video by @Justinjpearson
ICYMI: A mother spurred to action by Nashville's Covenant School shooting was hauled out of the gallery of the Tennessee House Thursday, placed into custody and eventually loaded into a Tennessee Highway Patrol squad car and driven away.
