After the Storm: NES Faces the Fallout of Extended Power Outages Six weeks after Winter Storm Fern knocked out power for hundreds of thousands of people, Nashvillians are looking for answers

NES reported that just half of its own frontline workforce were in the field when trees began falling Sunday morning, Jan. 25th. That is to say nothing of the slow ramp-up of contractors. Now, six weeks after the ice storm hit, Nashvillians are looking for answers.

The Justice Department’s Security Measures for Collecting Voter Rolls Are Inadequate Federal and state law requires that sensitive voter registration information be kept secure.

The DOJ’s push to collect voter files nationwide is a problem for many reasons. One major concern: It hasn’t shared how it will protect voters’ sensitive private data, despite laws requiring such information to be kept secure.

Call Your Senators: Reject the SAVE Act The SAVE Act could block millions of American citizens from voting.

The SAVE Act could block millions of American citizens from voting by requiring people to show documents like a passport or a birth certificate to register to vote. We should be protecting the freedom to vote, not restricting it.

Call Your Senators: Tell them to reject the SAVE Act!

Tennessee AG, Metro Council agree sanctuary city law is unconstitutional - Nashville Banner After a Metro Council challenge, the state AG agreed a Tennessee law criminalizing sanctuary policies by local governments is unconstitutional.

β€œNever in the history of the United States has a state tried to make a rule that local officials can be thrown in jail for... voting against the preferences of the state government."

That is until Tennessee's General Assembly passed such a law. Tennessee's AG has ruled it unconstitutional.

US farmers are rejecting multimillion-dollar datacenter bids for their land: β€˜I’m not for sale’ Families are navigating the tough choice between unimaginable riches and the identity that comes with land

Last month, a Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15M from data center developers to sell his farmland.

Another in Wisconsin turned down $80M.

America's farmers and others across the country are pushing back on Big Tech.

This is what integrity looks like.

Did you know that 96% of recovered crime guns were traced back to a purchase from a licensed gun dealer?

Gun dealers must do all they can to help stop illegal gun trafficking right at the source. We can’t let them turn a blind eye to the role they should play in keeping our communities safe.

Bill could allow more Tennesseans to request to remove library books A new bill is seeking to cement wider requirements that allow book removals at public libraries.

A new bill has been filed that would expand the power of Tennessee residents to remove books that they find objectionable at public libraries. But a local library advocacy group says, "Every library already has a reconsideration policy," making the new bill, a waste of "everyone’s time and money."

Tell your Senators to oppose the SAVE Act | League of Women Voters Tell your Senators to oppose the SAVE Act.

Congress continues to propose bills that would require voters to produce documentation of citizenship to register and/or vote. These bills are built on misinformation and would only create further barriers to casting one's ballot. Tell Congress to oppose them!
