  • 2020 Tennessee General Election Results
    2020 Tennessee General Election Results President: As the nation awaits to see who the next President will be Tennessee was quickly called for President Trump Tuesday evening. Though the President underperformed in Tennessee compared to his numbers in 2016, he still decidedly carried the State with 61% of the vote. Joe Biden carried only three counties in Tennessee: Davidson, Shelby and Haywood. U.S. Senate: Just as Tennessee voting Red for President Trump was no surprise; it was no surprise that Republican Bill Hagerty won big against Democrat Marquita Bradshaw. Bill Hagerty will replace retiring Senator Lamar Alexander. Bill Hagerty is a lifelong Tennessean who has filled various roles in the private sector with a great deal of success and has served as Tennessee Economic and Community Development Commission under Governor Haslam and U.S. Ambassador to Japan under President Trump. Hagerty received the endorsement of President Trump and defeated Dr. Manny Sethi in the primary. U.S. House: All eight of Tennessee’s incumbents were re-elected with little opposition. Tennessee will have a new face in Congress in Diana Harshbarger, who won the Republican Primary for Congressional District 1 to fill the seat left open by retiring Congressman Phil Roe. Diana is a pharmacist from Kingsport. State Senate: Senate District 20: Senator Steve Dickerson, a Republican from Nashville was defeated by Democrat Heidi Campbell, mayor of Oak Hill. Experts knew this race would be close as the district is a democrat district by close to 9 points. Though Senator Dickerson was a left leaning Republican, his voting record was not enough to save him from the anti-Trump voter turnout seen in Davidson County.

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. The vote to re-refer the bill was 14 “Yes”, 11 “No.” Those voting “Yes” (for TEA’s position) were: Representatives, Joe Armstrong (D-Knoxville), Tommie Brown (D-Chattanooga), Scotty Campbell (R-Mountain City), Jim Coley (R-Bartlett), Lois DeBerry (D-Memphis), Jimmy Eldridge (R-Jackson), Craig Fitzhugh (D-Ripley), Mike Harrison (R- Rogersville) Larry Miller (D-Memphis), Jimmy Naifeh (D-Covington), Gary Odom (D-Nashville), Dennis Roach (R-Rutledge), Johnny Shaw (D-Bolivar), and Harry Tindell (D-Knoxville).

  • 2019 Legislation Report for TCOG Members
    2019 Legislation Report By Deborah Fisher Executive Director, Tennessee Coalition for Open Government Following is a list of new public records exemptions and other public record laws passed by the 111th General Assembly, plus some proposals that failed or were delayed until next year. The new exemptions add to a list that is nearing 600. Citizens can expect some bills related to public records to re-emerge when the Legislature reconvenes Jan. 14, 2020. One of the more significant bills that was delayed, but attracted a lot of attention late in the session, would create a process for an injunction against a public records requester whose behavior was deemed “harassment,” as well as require government entities to post “basic government information” on their websites. New laws on public records 1 – New process for adopting exemptions to the Tennessee Public Records Act A new section was added to the Tennessee Public Records Act that requires that “any legislation that creates an exception to the open records requirement of § 10-7-503 deeming records of public entities to be open for inspection by the public must be referred to the government operations committee according to the rules of the house of representatives.” The House Government Operations Committee then is required to give a positive, neutral or negative recommendation before the legislation would continue its process through the committee system. This measure was adopted after the joint Ad Hoc Committee on Open Government met last fall to consider the growing number of exemptions to the public records act. State Rep. Jason Zachary, R-Knoxville, who sponsored the legislation (House Bill 86) and was the House chair of the ad hoc committee, has said this change is an effort to allow additional scrutiny to proposed exemptions going forward and assure that exceptions that might be part of a larger piece of legislation on a different topic do not go unnoticed by stakeholders in the public.
