Rep. Vincent Dixie: Why We're Voting NO on the 3 Amendments
Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Three constitutional amendments are on the Tennessee ballot, and Gloria and her colleague Rep. Vincent Dixie are voting NO on all three. Rep. Dixie, who owns a bail bonding company and says so up front, explains how Amendment 1 would take away the right to bail for people accused of any of 73 felonies, what that could mean for county jails, taxpayers and families, and why due process matters. They also break down Amendment 2, a ban on a state property tax Tennessee hasn't had in decades, and Amendment 3, a crime victims' rights amendment they say largely duplicates state law. They close with why policy doesn't belong in the Constitution, and what voters should know before they head to the polls.
