On April 25th, the Tennessee General Assembly adjourned sine die, concluding the 2nd year of the 113th General Assembly. Read this to see how the Tennessee disability community fared this year!
We made it! The General Assembly members have concluded their work for the year (as have we) and they are blessedly headed home for the year (to campaign). All in all, dear reader, we had another pretty darn good year. We, of course, did not win every battle, but we won a lot of them and flexed some disability community muscle.
We still have some good things on the table to get some signatures on. We’ve gone into “flow-motion” at the legislature, which is a fancier (and more fun) way to say that all rules are out, all schedules are changeable and all predictions are rendered useless by the chaos. I’m hearing next Thursday might be it, but like I previously noted about predictions, who knows?
