    Tennessee House speaker, U.S. senator challenge Nashville mayor’s request for TIRRC funding

    Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton and U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn challenge Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell’s request for $735,000 in funding for the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition (TIRRC), arguing it may violate state anti-sanctuary city laws. TIRRC provides legal services to immigrants, and its director, Lisa Sherman Luna, defends the funding as essential for supporting immigrants navigating the U.S. immigration system.
