Tennessee Republicans removed gun violence survivors by force from committee hearings because they held up signs protesting lawmakers’ fealty to the gun industry. But please tell us more about treating women and children with dignity!!!
I was diagnosed w/ an aortic aneurysm while pregnant. If it burst, it would have killed me and the fetus. My abortion saved my life. Today, that procedure is illegal in Tennessee.
Abortion saves lives — it saved mine.
PSAKI: “Medicaid is the largest payer of behavior health services in 🇺🇸— the same Republicans saying gun violence is a mental health issue are refusing to provide more coverage for mental health services.” #ExpandMedicaid
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for showing up each day with tenacity, courage, and conviction. We will keep fighting alongside you as long as it takes.
#PRpros: Join me and some of my colleagues in social media for @PRNews’ virtual session on the upgrades and updates you need to know Thursday, Sept. 14, noon-4 p.m. ET. Register now. https://t.co/lYvVsceI8j

Reminder: My Republican colleagues ended special session, once again, passing no gun reform and abandoning Tennesseans.
The Guns Over People (GOP) caucus doesn’t have the courage to listen to mothers and protect kids, not guns.
Shameful.
Today @Everytown Law announced a first-of-its-kind partnership with @memlawschool to fund the creation of an innovative clinical position to support pediatric victims of gun violence.
We are proud to be partnering with @memlawschool on this first-of-its-kind program that will ensure that Memphis children and their families who have been impacted by gun violence have the support and resources that they need.

There aren’t words to describe the complete failure of leadership that Tennesseans just witnessed over past 2 weeks. Our kids deserve better. Time to get back to work breaking this supermajority. 🤜🤛 #GetOnTheBus 🚌 #TeamJRC#TN55
It looks like the Tennessee General Assembly might be adjourning Sine Die today. Nothing got accomplished for Covenant families and gun safety. Tennessee House Republicans took so many losses in the last few days that they would rather leave with no protections for kids.
#Covenant parents back to urge #TNleg to take meaningful action on firearm safety, along with other citizens in support. Rep. @Justinjpearson meeting right those families and encouraging public to keep showing up. Communities all across state affected by gun violence and suicides
