Bill Lee: “I am concerned, however, that PEPFAR really has been flat funded for a couple of years in your budget”

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.

It’s a tragedy, and it’s deeply disturbing that that has happened in this state. The people deserve better than that.

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.

There are a lot of questions.
