Back to EpisodesTennessee Passes Bill Limiting Lawsuits Against New Laws
Description
Tennessee Republicans pass House Bill 1971, making it harder for citizens to challenge unconstitutional laws before they cause harm. The bill, requested by Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti, aims to reduce politically motivated lawsuits but faces opposition from Democrats and conservatives who argue it undermines checks and balances. If signed by Governor Bill Lee, Tennesseans will lose the ability to challenge laws preemptively, shifting all challenges to after real harm occurs.
