This bill will not only cause the state to throw away money but it will also makes TN look like bigots. We should be working on making equality for all instead of figurkng out laws that will segrate is more! This bill does all harm and no good. Please opose this bill!

Continue to #OpposeHB2414. Think about those transgender youth. I feel their pain because I, too, am trans*. #TENNESSEETRANSVOICE.

Governor, please oppose HB2414. I am a Nurse and it is morally unethical to refuse service to someone just because I don’t believe the things they do. What if I refused a life saving procedure to a heterosexual just because I didn’t agree with their lifestyle? We need to start bringing people together and embracing differences instead of passing laws that push us farther from each other. We need to teach our children that Love is the strongest force in the Universe.

This bill will cause nothing but trouble for an already troubled group. Don’t make it worse for them.

This is SUCH a bad direction for the state of TN. I live in music city, which generates the most tax revenue in the state. I don’t want to see it all wither away when businesses bail and concerts are cancelled and people decide not to move here because of small minded bigots. Veto this damn bill.

There is no practical reason for this bill. No law will prevent a predator from entering a public restroom if they want to. However, the bill will cause grave harm to transgendered children and adults who will be held up to bullying and harassment for no good reason whatsoever. This bill will most likely result in assaults, murders, and suicides. This is government intruding in the most private of places simply because of hatred of LGBT people.. Please, I beg you, veto this bill!
