The Tennessee Conservative [By Rebecca Scott] –
The Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to consider a bill on Monday, April 1 dealing with the transportation of illegal immigrants within the state of Tennessee.
Senate Bill 2034 (SB2034), sponsored by Senator Frank Nicely (R-Strawberry Plains-District 8), is strikingly similar to a bill that was very recently shot down by the Senate Judiciary Committee.
SB2034 “As introduced, increases, from $1,000 to $5,000, the fine for transporting into the state, for the purpose of commercial advantage or private financial gain, an individual who the person knows or should have known has illegally entered or remained in the United States, as determined by the bureau of immigration and customs enforcement of the United States department of homeland security. – Amends TCA Title 4; Title 12; Title 39; Title 50 and Title 67.”
The House companion bill (HB2432) is sponsored by Representative Andrew Farmer (R-Sevierville-District 17). It has been assigned to the House Banking & Consumer Affairs Subcommittee but has not been slated on their calendar to be heard at this time.
Representative Bryan Richey (R-Maryville-District 20) and Senator Joey Hensley (R-Hohenwald-District 28) sponsored a very similar bill, but it did not make it past committee considerations. That bill would have also increased penalties for the transportation of illegal aliens into the state by amending a current statute and raising the fine from $1,000 to $5,000 per individual.
To voice your support or concerns regarding SB2034, contact the Senate Judiciary Committee before their scheduled meeting on Monday, April 1.

Time to clean out these Democrats that run as Republicans. Voter turn out in TN is generally pitiful and that is why these RINOs keep getting elected. Get up off the couch and start voting for some new REAL Constitutionally Conservative candidates that have the spine to stand up for the people.
Why are these International Criminals here getting 5k+ per month of taxpayer money.
Veterans and citizens need the monetary help.
Screw the free-loaders that came only to be leeches.
These phony Republicans that vote socialist Democrat are known as Trotskyites.
no more than C7FSocialist Democrats pretending to be Conservative Republican to get elected.
Been doing it ever since America’s first Fascist President, Woodrow Wilson.
They all hate Catholics and Christians which has been shown by Joe and others on Easter Day.
Joe and the current government is no more than the political marriage of Stalin & Hitler. Both Lefty’s.
