Bill Lee: “That, in essence, is taxing disabled veterans for disabilities that they unfortunately acquired while serving this…”

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.

There are a lot of questions. The people of our state deserve to have those questions answered.

We have really seen the airport board and commissioners just step right into one decision to the next to make sure that this happened.

I will seek an independent investigation and pause all executions for the rest of 2026.
