Concerned Tennessean

@Campbell4TN I’m all for being equal. So, let’s change the name of the “spring holiday” for @metronashville schools to its rightful name…Good Friday. I’m betting that won’t happen.

Overton welcomes people from many cultures in my district. More languages are spoken than at any other HS in our state. Along with support for Christianity, JOHS supports families from many cultures and faiths. For those who don't have hate in their hearts, it's a beautiful thing

Hey Nashville! Everyone call @xfinity and get your credit for not having Channel 5. Maybe if everyone calls and asks for the credit they will get off their butts and get this issue solved before we miss all of The Masters!

@Xfinity do we in Nashville get a credit for ya’ll causing us to miss the final four and now @TheMasters? This is ridiculous. Get back to the table and get this deal done for your customers! Maybe we should all be shopping streaming platforms if you can’t resolve this quickly.

@AGTennessee Giving us two $15 credits when they charge $75 for two hour parking downtown. Gee thanks. I’m not sure that’s what I would call standing up for Tennessee consumers.

We are proud to stand up for Tennessee consumers!

@NC5 Would love to know more specific numbers. Up 13% tells us nothing.

Nashville's new bus lanes and smart signals have pushed WeGo ridership up 13%. See where the city plans to install the next transit upgrades. newschannel5.com/news/nashville…

@peytonTVkennedy @WKRN Just think. If the @MetroNashville and @freddieoconnell, did the right thing for their constituents there would be LPRs that could assist and find the person who did this!

BREAKING: Lafayette Street closed as police investigate a pedestrian hit-and-run @WKRN

@tennesseestands Unbelieveable!! I guess they don’t care what their constituents want so we will have to remind them at the ballot box.

HB1971 has passed the House Judiciary Committee. As Rep. Bulso reiterated to the committee, this bill will make it more difficult for citizens to sue the government, taking away rights that were given to us in 2018. Here are how our representatives voted.

@GovPressOffice You mean like this?

The man who actually got Iran to make a deal that kept Americans safe

@Jerri_M_Green If your logic holds true, every city in Tennessee would have the same type of crime that Memphis does or now “did.” But, we all know that is not the truth or the issue.

Republicans want to paint a horror story about Memphis to cover up the fact that they’re the reason crime shot up in the first place. When they passed the law to allow guns in cars to be stored unsafely without consequences, Memphis became #1 in the nation for guns stolen out of cars. Chattanooga became #2. That’s not an accident. Before that law was passed, Memphis had a couple hundred guns stolen out of cars a year—then it shot up to thousands. When we tried to put measures on the ballot to allow our city to keep guns out of the wrong hands and keep weapons of war off our streets, Speaker Cameron Sexton threatened to take away our sales taxes. The ballot measures passed by 80%. That’s NRA-card toting residents and non gun-owners alike. The legislature still insists that guns run rampant on our streets. Because they won’t let us rein in gun violence, I started a free gun lock program to ensure more guns were stored safely. In the two years since we started that program, guns stolen out of cars went down 25%. Violent crime also went down 25%. All before the national guard came. Yet Trump, Governor Bill Lee, and my opponent Senator Marsha Blackburn come into Memphis to say they’ve saved the day. No, Democrats like me found a way to take care of our community in SPITE of your asinine gun laws. Republicans don’t care if school shootings, gun violence, and accidental gun deaths continue. Democrats are the party who are doing the work to keep our communities safe. Those are the facts. 6 of the 10 safest states in the U.S. are led by Democratic governors. Maybe we should try something different.

YES!!

Stuck in line to fly for hours? Thank Republicans Marsha and Bill. While you’re waiting in line, call Senator Blackburn at 202-224-3344 and Senator Hagerty at 202-224-4944 to tell them to FUND TSA.

@RepMcGarvey You’re obviously drinking too much of that good bourbon from Kentucky as you have this completely backwards. Dems are the problem. Fund the government and get back to work. Your constituents pay your salary to do your job not to post on twitter.

Reminder that Republicans have blocked our efforts to pay TSA agents 7 times. We could end this today.

@FOXNashville Have in Scottsdale, but not sure about Nashville as there are way too many events with blocked off lanes.

POLL: Would you use a driverless rideshare? 🚗

@SenWarren Why don’t you focus on funding @TSA instead of focusing on Trump. Do your job!

Millions of dollars are missing. ABC, Paramount, X, and Meta all settled lawsuits by promising to donate millions to Trump's library fund. Now, his initial library fund is gone. Is the money in Donald Trump's pocket? I'm pressing for answers.

@SouthwestAir @united you’re up! Do the right thing for your all your customers!

@BarackObama You mean the Unaffordable Care Act. There I fixed it for you.

The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time. The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more. But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.

@peytonTVkennedy @WKRN Just think if the Metro Council cared about all their constituents Nashville would have LPRs and they might be able to find the shooter.

Metro Police say a man was shot while driving near Vanderbilt University on Thursday night @WKRN

A Muslim flag was raised at Newark City Hall as people chanted “Allahu Akbar” (January). Mamdani sat on the floor and ate with his hands at New York City Hall (March). This isn’t assimilation. This is takeover.

@MattSeedorff Everybody gets a trophy in California! That’s crazy and a disgrace to those who finish!

NEW: Runners in the Los Angeles Marathon will be able to stop at mile 18 and still receive a finisher medal this weekend. Organizers say it’s an option for participants who are having a tough race day.

@FOXNashville Freddie taking after his counter part Gov. Tim Walz. This should be a hard pass from the Nashville Metro Council. The babies are depending on them!

Freddie O’Connell and members of the Nashville Metro Council are proposing legislation to make it easier to open child care centers in Nashville by updating regulations and fast-tracking permits. Officials say the goal is to expand options as child care costs top $13K a year in Davidson County. bit.ly/40kYblU
