NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — In the wake of a deadly school shooting last
month, Republican lawmakers in Tennessee awarded final passage Tuesday to
a proposal that would further protect gun and ammunition dealers,
manufacturers and sellers against lawsuits.
The Senate’s 19-9 vote sends the bill to Republican Gov. Bill Lee, despite
pushback from Democratic lawmakers saying their GOP counterparts are
trying to shield gun companies just weeks after the Nashville school
shooting that killed six people, including three 9-year-olds.
The final vote came as Lee’s administration was still trying to drum up
enough support among lawmakers in his party to pass legislation to keep
firearms away from people who could harm themselves or others. The fate of
that kind of measure remains uncertain.
