Bill Lee: “The passage of bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act with the largest investment in American industrial policy in the past 50…”

Carrying out a lawfully imposed sentence is among the State’s most serious responsibilities, and the people of Tennessee expect it to be done in a manner that is not only legal and constitutional, but is effective.

The people of our state deserve to have those questions answered. And that’s what this investigation’s for.

It’s exactly why we will have a thorough, comprehensive review of what happened, so that we can know the answers that so many people want.

I hope that Tennessee governor Bill Lee’s decision to postpone the last execution scheduled for this year will give lawmakers time to consider the subject seriously.
