  • 1- in the CHANCERY COURT for DAVIDSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE TENNESSEANS for SENSIBLE § ELECTION LAWS, § § Plaintiff, §
    E-FILED 3/18/2020 12:17 PM CLERK & MASTER DAVIDSON CO. CHANCERY CT. IN THE CHANCERY COURT FOR DAVIDSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE TENNESSEANS FOR SENSIBLE § ELECTION LAWS, § § Plaintiff, § § v. § Case No. _______________ § HERBERT H. SLATERY III, § TENNESSEE ATTORNEY GENERAL, § § and § § DAVIDSON COUNTY DISTRICT § ATTORNEY GENERAL, § § Defendants. § COMPLAINT I. INTRODUCTION 1. The Plaintiff, Tennesseans for Sensible Election Laws, is a registered Tennessee multicandidate political campaign committee. Its mission is to ensure that Tennessee’s election laws protect the rights of all Tennesseans to participate in democracy and support candidates of their choosing without unreasonable governmental interference. 2. In order to achieve its mission, Tennesseans for Sensible Election Laws engages in substantial advocacy efforts, including: (1) publishing op-eds on state election law issues; (2) publishing essays on state election law issues; (3) providing analysis of state election law issues for local media; (4) contributing directly to, and making direct expenditures against, certain election-related measures; (5) conducting candidate surveys gauging the positions held by diverse candidates running in competitive state and -1- local races on state election law issues; and (6) making direct contributions and expenditures in support of and in opposition to candidates and measures in furtherance of its mission. 3. Tennessee has “established a criminal cause of action for defamation involving campaign literature,” see Tenn. Op. Att'y Gen. No. 09-112 (June 10, 2009), which is codified at Tenn. Code Ann. § 2-19-142. Specifically, Tenn. Code Ann. § 2-19-142 provides that: It is a Class C misdemeanor for any person to publish or distribute or cause to be published or distributed any campaign literature in opposition to any candidate in any election if such person knows that any such statement, charge, allegation, or other matter contained therein with respect to such candidate is false.

    <BillNo> <Sponsor> SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION 517 By Gilmore A RESOLUTION to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the passage of Public Chapter 95 of 1921. WHEREAS, on April 5, 1921, Governor Alfred A. Taylor signed into law Senate Bill 737, which became Public Chapter 95 of 1921, a law that gave the women of Tennessee the right to hold public office; and WHEREAS, less than thirty years earlier, on April 29, 1893, the Tennessee Supreme Court had declared in State ex rel. v. Davidson, 92 Tenn 531; 22 S.W. 203, that "By the English or common law, no woman, under the dignity of a queen, could take part in the government of the State, and they could hold no office except parish office…"; and WHEREAS, the Tennessee Supreme Court further stated that "Although a woman may be a citizen, she is not entitled, by virtue of her citizenship, to take any part in the government, either as a voter or as an officer, independent of legislation conferring such rights upon her…. It follows that unless there is some constitutional or legislative provision enabling her to hold office, she is not eligible to the same"; and WHEREAS, in short, such ruling declared that although a woman was a citizen of the State, she had no right to vote or hold any elected office; and WHEREAS, on April 17, 1919, Governor A. H. Roberts signed into law Public Chapter 139 of 1919, "AN ACT granting women the right to vote for electors of President and Vice President of the United States, and for municipal officers"; under this law, women in Tennessee could now vote in most elections, but the bar to holding public office remained; and WHEREAS, in August 1920, Tennessee became the thirty-sixth and final state necessary to ratify the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution; women throughout the SJR0517 006838 - 1 - United States were then able to vote in the November 1920 presidential election, but women in Tennessee still had no legal right to hold public office; and WHEREAS, in a special election held in January 1921 to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator J.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.
