The Tri-Star State — A Tennessee Politics Podcast — Week of April 14, 2019
Many of Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee's initiatives are making their way through the state legislature, and some are faring better than others.
In his first year, the governor’s proposals range from increasing vocational education to faith-based initiatives to implementing a pilot program for school vouchers.
In this episode of The Tri-Star State, WPLN’s Sergio Martínez-Beltrán and Jason Moon Wilkins talk about these measures and how they're doing.
Some of Gov. Lee's legislative initiatives are:
Education Savings Accounts — HB939/SB795
Governor's Civics Seal — HB944/SB800
Governor's Investment in Vocational Education, GIVE Act — HB949/SB805
Governor's Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives — HB1139/SB961
Charter school authorizer — HB940/SB796
