Podcasts about governor lee

We are back with a live and all new Real Talk Memphis; my guests include Beverly Robertson. She is a well established community leader and businesswoman. Now, she is taking on a new challenge as an appointed member of the MSCS Oversight board as chosen by Governor Lee. She joins me to talk about why she accepted the offer and the challenges that might lie ahead. Speaking of the MSCS School Board, member Tamarques Porter will join me to offer his thoughts and reaction. Another question is just how much authority they will now have as the elected body. Lastly, as of late, we hear more about our young people but for the wrong reasons it seems. I will introduce you to a 17-year old young woman, Jasmine Bernard who is making sure that people know that being young doesn't mean being unaware. She is a community activist who has a lot to say. That and more both on air and online Monday, 6pm on 91.7 FM WYXR. Also, the WYXR app, Tunein, Facebook Live, YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts.It's time to talk!

For some, a book is just a book. For others, it can be life-changing, or controversial, or both.When the Age-Appropriate Materials Act was signed into law by Governor Lee in 2022, it paved the way for certain book titles to be challenged and removed from both school and public libraries. Now, the debate about access, education and community values rages throughout the state.What does book banning actually look like? Who's making these calls — and how do they affect readers? Today, we unpack the issue, share perspectives and talk about what might be at stake when a book disappears from the shelf.Guests: Bruce Barry, opinion columnist, Tennessee Lookout Angele Latham, First Amendment reporter, Tennessean Christina Soontornvat, author; state leader, Authors Against Book Bans

Most people trust the system to manage their money. Rod Roudi walked away from tech to build Bitcoin Park and is now redefining financial freedom in Nashville. In this special episode of The Root of All Success, recorded live at The Standard Club in front of the Leadership Society, Jason Duncan sits down with Rod Roudi, co-founder of Bitcoin Park (a mission oriented community campus for Bitcoiners), builders, and freedom fighters. After hosting one meetup that grew from 15 people to 150 in four months, Rod left his safe tech career to bet everything on permissionless money and provable scarcity. Rod breaks down why Bitcoin is "freedom money," how it outperforms gold on divisibility, verifiability, portability, and scarcity, and why merchants should stop paying 3% to Visa when that could go straight to their bottom line instead. This conversation dives into: •The rainy night at Jackalope Brewery that started with 20 people and changed everything •How Bitcoin meetups grew from 15 to 100 to 150 people in just four months •Acquiring Florida Georgia Line's old campus in Hillsboro Village for Bitcoin Park •Why Rod left a safe tech job for a mission-oriented life he could be proud of •Bitcoin 101: Freedom money that preserves future purchasing power better than any asset •The $100 remittance story: How Western Union takes $58 before gangs take the rest •Comparing Bitcoin vs. Gold across 5 metrics: divisibility, acceptability, verifiability, portability, scarcity •Why 21 million Bitcoin is provable scarcity vs. gold's unknown supply •How you can verify the entire Bitcoin blockchain yourself with free open-source software •The magic internet money protocol missing from the internet: Bitcoin •Why your $1.93 Starbucks coffee now costs $3.57 (and Bitcoin fixes this) •The 10,000 Bitcoin pizza story: How 2 pizzas in 2010 now buys a $300k house in Bitcoin •Why merchants lose 3% to credit cards and how Bitcoin returns that to their bottom line •Defining fiat: Printable money by centralized governing bodies with no supply cap •Bitcoin as the money protocol for 8 billion people (you can't invest in SMTP or FTP, but you can own Bitcoin) •Creating an "Orange Zone" in Nashville: Bitcoin-educated community building generational wealth •Senators Hagerty & Blackburn, Governor Lee, and Tennessee's crypto-friendly leadership If you're an entrepreneur tired of losing 3% to payment processors, skeptical about Bitcoin but curious, or ready to preserve your future purchasing power in a world of inflating fiat — this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about money.

3 Bills To Get Illegal Aliens OFF Tennessee Roads

Tennessee State Senate Democratic Leader Raumesh Akbari gives her response to the State of the State address on February 2nd. Governor Lee says our economy is thriving, but Akbari says the cost of electricity, housing and groceries are higher than it's ever been. "About 50% of those who live in the state are really struggling to even pay their regular bills." She hopes that our state can keep up with our 8 surrounding states when it comes to legislation that helps the average Tennessean. Topics discussed: to greatly reduced or eliminate the grocery tax to offset higher prices of food, additional funding for our public schools, helping our farmers after devastating tariffs halted or slowed selling their crops abroad, immigration laws, and waiting for data on public vs. private school metrics before doubling the Education Freedom Scholarships to 40,000 instead of 20,000 at $7295 per student going directly to private schools.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

TBA's Legislative Updates podcast is new with TBA attorneys and lobbyists, Berkley Schwarz, Pier Strategies LLC, and Brad Lampley and Ashley Harbin, Adams and Reese. This week they discuss Governor Lee's State of the State address, Adoption Bill SB2165/HB2350 ,Probate Bill SB2184/HB2451, and a Family Law bill SB2324/HB2429. 

Olivia Lupia of The Tennessee Conservative interviews State Representative Monty Fritts, who is also running for governor, discussing upcoming bills and his legislative priorities for the session. The bill filing deadline was extended to February 3rd at 3:00 p.m..Key topics and bills discussed include:Grocery Sales Tax Bill: Representative Fritts is running a bill that would remove the 4% state sales tax on items that qualify for WIC. He notes that this is the same bill he carried a couple of years ago and it removes the burden from grocers by not requiring them to reprogram anything. The intent is that all Tennessee citizens would benefit from the tax removal on these items. A few years ago, the fiscal note was about $150 million. He believes this is a "measured step forward" compared to trying to remove all grocery taxes and that the dollars saved by Tennesseans will go back into the economy.Charlie Kirk Memorial Courtyard Bill: Representative Fritts and Senator Pod are running a bill for schools that would create the Charlie Kirk Memorial Courtyard. The idea evolved from an initial proposal for a road or boulevard. The courtyards are intended to be a conversation space, memorializing the importance of dialogue, and would allow for public donations to help. The idea is to remind "crazy leftist Marxist radicals" on college campuses that they are near things like the Ten Commandments and the Declaration of Independence.Illegal Immigration: Representative Fritts believes Tennessee has led the nation in addressing illegal immigration, specifically with House Bill 1872, which addresses violent crime committed by illegal immigrants with a life in prison sentence without parole. He also highlighted the importance of considering residency status for bond.Non-Essentialism Bill: Representative Fritts is still pursuing his non-essentialism bill, which the governor's office has fought for three years.Property Tax: Representative Fritts wants to address property taxes by getting rid of the unrealized capital gain tax. He also wants to fix the value of a home at its 2020 value or what the owner paid for it since then. His bill aims to prevent U.S. citizens from being evicted for delinquent property taxes, especially if they have owned the house for ten years.Sanctity of Life Bill: This bill focuses on five areas and includes provisions related to In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). Representative Fritts stated that to discard or destroy a fertilized egg as part of the IVF process is murder. The bill is intended as a "corrective measure" after Governor Lee did not veto a bill that Fritts believed gave the right to create and discard human life at will. The other categories addressed in the bill are transgender surgeries, human trafficking, and abortion.Obscenity and Pornography: A bill is being introduced to take on obscenity and pornography in public places. It would require places like a strip club to post a sign warning that patrons "may be contributing to human trafficking, sexual assault, and family violence". Books and tapes would also require a warning label similar to a pack of cigarettes.Gun Bills: Representative Fritts is working on two gun bills, which address the "intent to go armed". One bill is already filed. The other bill would also include campus carry, allowing young adults to carry a firearm on campus, and would allow citizens to protect their private property with a firearm. The bill also addresses long guns.

A new year means the state legislature will soon be back in session. Shelby Vannoy with the Tennessee Farm Bureau Federation's Public Policy Division offers a preview of what to expect in both chambers, Governor Lee's vision in his final year in office, and what to expect in the upcoming elections.

Tennessee Governor Bill Lee addressed the voting delegates at the 104th Tennessee Farm Bureau Annual Meeting. Lee reaffirmed his commitment commitment to agriculture in his final year in office.

District 15 State Senator Paul Bailey (R) sent out a press release urging Governor Lee to fund SNAP benefits for Tennesseans after the federal government shutdown, which halted payments November 1st, affecting more than 690,000 Tennesseans - including 20,635 constituents in district 15. Bailey's concerns stem from a firsthand look at the crisis during an October visit to a local food bank, where he witnessed empty shelves and overwhelming demand. "Tennessee had reached crisis mode before November 1st." Bailey highlighting how "the elderly and working-class families struggling to make ends meet," and relatives raising children not their own have already exhausted local food pantries. Tuesday, Governor Lee announced he is directing $5 million dollars in state funding to food banks across Tennessee, with funding coming from TennCare. Previously, the federal government covered half of the $128 million in administrative costs and allocated $145 million in monthly cash benefits to the state. Under the Big Beautiful Bill Act, Tennessee will now shoulder half of the administrative costs and a portion of the benefit expenses. Bailey acknowledges the $5 million allocation is a good start, but warns it may take up to 2 weeks to fully restore SNAP benefits once the federal shutdown ends. Tennessee is currently conducting budget hearings to identify spending reductions to comply with the Big Beautiful Bill Act. Beyond TennCare/Medicaid cuts and the elimination of the ACA healthcare premium subsidies, the most significant federal funding cuts will impact the TANF program which helps low-income families meet basic needs and move toward self-sufficiency, also programs in the Department of Aging and Disability.

In this week's episode we continue our conversation with an individual that exemplifies conservative and servant leadership in the Tennessee General Assembly. In this Part 2 we discuss Governor Lee's voucher scam bill and the sort of retribution the fake Republican, establishment people in leadership positions in the General Assembly take against true Republicans. Buckle up folks for a bit of some inside baseball discussion. When so-called Republican leaders punish conservative members of the General Assembly, they are punishing all Tennesseans – all to advance the agenda of their corporate and often out of state benefactors.

Jim began this edition of Crosstalk asking for prayer regarding an important Supreme Court case being heard tomorrow (12/4). There will be oral arguments presented in a case dealing with the Tennessee law banning irreversible gender transition procedures for children. Governor Lee of Tennessee had signed Senate Bill 1 into law in March of 2023. It went into effect in July of that year. The legislation bans doctors or health care providers from performing so-called gender affirming surgeries or hormonal procedures on minors.The Biden administration joined together with the ACLU and several teenage plaintiffs suing to stop this law. A Tennessee District Court initially blocked it in April of 2023 but in September, a Sixth Circuit Court upheld Tennessee's protections for children and the Supreme Court took up the case in June of this year. The case is known as United States v. Skrmetti.When something bizarre is spoken or takes place, we often respond with the question: What in the world? The remainder of this program dealt with news stories that, from a Christian perspective, cause us to want to express the same question. Examples included:After repeatedly insisting that he would never pardon his son (Jim provided proof via audio cuts), President Biden has pardoned Hunter Biden for any and all crimes that he committed over the last decade.A very distraught group of Wisconsin women gathered on November 9th at a park in Whitefish Bay, filming themselves during a primal scream gathering to express their frustration with Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 presidential election.

Republicans are gaining momentum in key midterms races; and with federalism on the rise in our politics, watching republicans thrive in the gubernatorial races has been encouraging. In this episode, Governor Bill Lee of Tennessee joins us to discuss his own race for re-election and the current state of our country. Before entering politics in 2018, Governor Lee was president of his grandfather's business, where his leadership took the company's annual revenue from $20 million to $140 million. His success in business has informed his governing policy; and as a result many companies, including The Daily Wire, have resettled in Tennessee in the wake of disastrous democratic policy.  In Nashville, recent controversy at Vanderbilt University over transgender programs has directly involved Governor Lee in statewide protection of children. We will discuss. Plus, Lee breaks down his plans for abortion bans, job growth in TN, and places conservatives can win in the coming years.
