The Tennessee legislature is better understood as a theme park • Tennessee Lookout

Inspired by a recent trip to Walt Disney World, I’ve decided the only way to understand the current Tennessee legislative session is to approach it as a theme park. Here is my guidebook to Legislative Land.

The premier attraction this season is Gov. Bill Lee’s Voucher Roller Coaster. The clunky voucher train careens wildly and threatens to go off the rails. Lee is in the lead car, trying to keep the other cars in line even while House Speaker Cameron Sexton serves as conductor, threatening to toss Republican legislators over the side and maybe into a dungeon. Lee refuses to put the brakes on the runaway trains and keeps releasing smoke screens to obscure the dangers.

We elected these people. Please let how they are handling these situations and what they plan to do to you all as tax payers be a lesson. Let's find and raise up the right kind of leadership for Tennesseans and not just wealthy lobbyists. Billions of dollars, if they leak it all away and disappear, we will all be left underserved, broke, and hungry. Please pay attention.
