  • Speaker Biographies Bench Bar Program Judge Ken Starr Is Best
    Speaker Biographies Bench Bar Program Judge Ken Starr Is best known as the independent counsel who headed the investigation that led to the impeachment of U.S. President Bill Clinton. In 1994 Starr was named the independent counsel to lead the investigation into the so-called Whitewater affair, which involved a land deal in Arkansas during the time Clinton was that state’s governor. As a result of the investigation, 11 people—including Clinton associates James and Susan McDougal — were convicted of crimes. He subsequently was directed to investigate what came to be known as Travelgate, involving the firing of longtime White House workers, and Filegate, pertaining to FBI files on Republicans that were found in the White House. In 1998, however, allegations of an affair between Clinton and White House intern Monica Lewinsky became the focus of Starr’s attention. Based on Starr’s findings, the House of Representatives voted to impeach the president in December 1998. The Senate acquitted Clinton the following year. Chief Justice Jeff Bivins Took office as a member of the Tennessee Supreme Court in 2014. He was appointed to this position by Gov. Bill Haslam. He was elected to the remainder of the full term in August 2016. Effective Sept. 1, 2016, his colleagues elected him to the position of Chief Justice. Prior to his appointment to the Tennessee Supreme Court, Justice Bivins was a judge on the Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals. He is a graduate of Vanderbilt University School of Law. He received a bachelor’s degree, magna cum laude from East Tennessee State University, with a major in political science and a minor in criminal justice.

On Tuesday, May 3, HB 130, the bill which would repeal the 1978 Education Professional Negotiations Act, was re-referred back to the House Education Committee to consider a last-minute seventeen page amendment. Making the motion to re-refer the bill was Rep. Jimmy Eldridge (R- Jackson). All teachers owe Rep. Eldridge a “thank you” for his support.

Those voting “No” (against TEA’s position) were: Representatives David Alexander (R- Winchester), Harry Brooks (R-Knoxville), Kevin Brooks (R-Cleveland), Joe Carr (R-Lascassas), Steve Hall (R-Knoxville), David Hawk (R-Greeneville), Curtis Johnson (R-Clarksville), Judd Matheny (R- Tullahoma), Gerald McCormick (R-Chattanooga), Steve McDaniel (R-Parkers Crossroads), and Charles Sargent (R-Franklin). TEA members are strongly urged to thank members who voted “Yes” to re-refer the bill.
