The Tennessee Legislature Was Able To Work Through A Full Session In 2021 Without Too Many Of The Problems Being Attributed To Covid-19. The Year Had Significant Hopes As At Least Three Bills Were Pending Which Addressed Either Permitless Carry Or Something Much More Desirable And Closer To Real Constitutional Carry. TFA Tracked 53 Bills In 2021 Of Which 20 Were Enacted Into Law. Of Those 20, Only A Few Are Likely Of Interest To Most Firearms Owners And Conservatives.

Legislative Committees Are Closing Down. Soon, We Will Know What 2nd Amendment Related Issues Are Going To Be Enacted By The Republican Super Majority And Which Are Not. Never, Never Forget That With The Super Majority, The Failure To Enact Any Legislation Or The Enactment Of Legislation. Good Or Bad, Is Solely The Act Of The Legislature’s Republican Caucuses. Incrementalism And Half-steps May Seem Like Progress But The Fact That It Is A Half- Step By A Super Majority Is Significant And Must Be Noted For The 2022 Election Cycle.

These Are The Bills That Need Action Now!

Even though we have a Republican Supermajority, we still have a Conservative minority in the TN House, Senate and the Governor’s Mansion. In this interview, John Harris of the Tennessee Firearms Association describes how true Constitutional Carry is being scuttled by RINOs in obscure committee meetings… yet these same “bad actors” tout their gun strong rights records on the campaign trail. Watch now so you can see HOW to protect and advance your 2nd Amendment rights!
