Lawmakers in Tennessee recently passed a law requiring local law enforcement to communicate with federal officials regarding the immigration status of a person in late March. Now, community members are urging the governor to veto it.
Over 200 demonstrators walked from Public Square Park to the Capitol to urge Gov. Bill Lee not to sign HB 2124/SB 2576, which is currently at his desk awaiting his final approval. The demonstrators also delivered a petition to stop the bill from taking effect, The Tennessean reported.
