Honoring the first grand wizard of the KKK doesn't help attract businesses to TN, & it doesn't leave tourists with a positive impression of Tennesseans' values. honorablementions.weebly.com Joined April 2019-

When I was first elected in 2013, I was pressured to vote for vouchers by advocates and lobbyists . They would often use the name of my predecessor (the late Lois M. Deberry) and say that she supported vouchers, so I should too (she didn’t, btw). Because of that, I’ve researched…
TN school voucher bill dead for the year: 'I am extremely disappointed,' governor says tennessean.com/story/news/pol…
@CSexton25 Sounds like he's referring to the 2 Justin's.
We just voted to allow foster families to exempt foster kids from vaccines. Speaker called on one Dem member then a GOP called the question. Multiple Dem members had their hands raised, me included. We objected to the question, they voted us down and passed this dangerous bill.
This Tennessee state park is named after the first grand wizard of the KKK ...and people have been trying to get them to change the name for nearly a decade. jacksonsun.com/story/news/pol…
This morning we collected 16 bags of trash totaling over 100lbs in East Park! I encourage everyone to join a cleanup in their community. They’re fun, you make new friends, and picking up trash is deeply satisfying. Remember, nobody trashes Tennessee!
@Honor_Mentions a simple google search "famous Black people from Tennessee" turns up a whole lotta folks who would be worthy of having a state park named after them. Arethra Franklin & Oprah are just 2🤔
@CircusIsCalling @SenJohnson Nazis walking down a street in downtown Nashville is simply "weird people"? I wonder how the Jewish community feels about that?
@Honor_Mentions @TNblackcaucus @TheTNHoller @Tennessean @TennStateParks @MTSU @GovBillLee @madotu1 @BarnwellSmith @TennesseeMAGA13 @zeboe561 Maybe a student or organization would be willing to take it over to provide a younger perspective? Maybe a class would like to take on the cause as a class project (that could even be passed from year to year)? Maybe another leader would be willing to promote it?
Nikki Haley doing damage control today: “Of COURSE the Civil War was about slavery… but it was about more than that.” Again: Slavery was in the very first paragraph of the secession documents. Minimizing that in any way is intentional and wrong.
Yall wanna hear something mind-boggling? For the past year, I've been the only woman legislator in the entire General Assembly with a child in daycare. What's even worse is TN's childcare crisis that's affecting working families' ability to plan, raise and support their families.
“If all we’re doing is putting our energy into shouting down the people who say stupid things, then no one is out there saying smart things.” - @MoElleithee with @fearless_greene on @NPR/@kcrw @JoinTheUnionUS to help defend #democracy & join others saying smart things
It gets even worse for Jordan. Sources told us that Republican members of the Armed Services and Appropriations committees are forming an alliance of nearly 20 to block Jordan from becoming speaker. If that holds, there’s no chance Jordan can get the gavel.
In the 2020 vote Trump had not tried to overturn the results of the election or sent a mob to do violence at the Capitol. If you vote for him this time, you are going to need a cover story to tell your kids when they grow up because they won’t ever agree or understand.
@wanderingyankee @Lily_PolisStan @Honor_Mentions x.com/honor_mentions…
Why, in 2019, does #Tennessee have a State Park whose name honors Nathan Bedford Forrest (first KKK Grand Wizard)? It's confusing at best & requires more explanation than the park website provides. Please change the name @GovBill Lee. cc: @Tennessean HonorableMentions.weebly.com
@Lily_PolisStan Yes. @Honor_Mentions has been fighting the good fight to have it renamed for years.
@Honor_Mentions @GovBillLee @TennStateParks Such a beautiful park to bear such a dishonorable name.
Because this feels like it's been done before. Like, almost exactly seven years ago. Because in two days it's the 7th anniversary of when I went public. Not the same old MSU??
Putting the survivor in a position where speaking publicly was the only option to stopping him. After she did, he gets suspended. Not because of the investigation. Not because of the admission. Because people found out. Explain to me exactly how this isn't the same MSU?
