🚨HB793/SB836 advances in Senate Finance Committee.

This bill tried to strip children of their freedom to learn. We know that education is a right, not a privilege.

We’ve defeated 2 of these 3 bills already, and we’ll keep fighting to protect education for all.

[TIRRC Votes @TIRRCVotes]

VICTORY💪🏽

HB0145 failed in House Banking & Consumer Affairs Sub. Aiming to strip away children's right to education & prohibit families from financially supporting their relatives abroad.

Our fight to protect education continues with HB793 today in House Ed Committee at 4:30pm.

[TIRRC Votes @TIRRCVotes]

VICTORY!! 🚨

Today, SB1044 failed in Senate Ed. Committee. This bill was one of the measures attempting to strip children of their freedom to learn.

Education is a right, not a privilege. Our fight to protect this right continues. It’s going to take all of us.

🚨HB322 passes in Criminal Justice Subcommittee.

It gives full power to the Attorney General to further criminalize mixed status families & attack organizations, businesses, or families providing services to immigrants.

It’s clear state overreach and harmful to all Tennesseans.

[TIRRC Votes @TIRRCVotes]

VICTORY!! 🚨

Today, HB10 failed in the Depts. and Agencies Subcommittee. This bill was another attempt to make life harder for immigrants & criminalize our communities.

Thanks to our partners & members for showing up at every step. Our fight to protect our families continues.

🚨URGENT CALL TO ACTION: Join us TONIGHT to send a clear message: every child deserves an education, no matter how much money their parents have, what they look like, or where they were born.

Every child deserves an education.

Right now, some Tennessee politicians are trying to deny children their freedom to learn based on who they are and where they come from. The first vote could happen as early as Wednesday.

Join us to take action! https://t.co/CDe7Kma0OA

We want to thank @gabbysalinas for sharing her powerful story on the House floor in regard to HB6001.

We will not back down. We will continue sharing our stories. We will continue organizing and protecting our communities. Tennessee is home and we are here to stay.

[TIRRC Votes @TIRRCVotes]

We all deserve to belong and thrive in our communities, regardless of who we are, where we come from, or how we came to call TN home.

Stay tuned for further updates and call to action.

🚨BREAKING: HB6001, TN’s blueprint for family separation and racial profiling, has passed the Special Session’s Immigration Committee. 🧵⬇️

[TIRRC Votes @TIRRCVotes]

HB6001 doubles down in existing policies at the expense of TN tax payers. This bill is expensive, hasty and unnecessary for Tennesseans.
