YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIt's no surprise that Tennessee House Republicans are making their positions known - in black and white.
Nashville Representative. Justin Jones brought resolutions before the body to honor the Grammy achievements of Paramore, who won Best Rock Album and Best Alternative Music Performance, and Allison Russell, who picked up her first Grammy for Best American Roots Performance for the song "Eve Was Black."
They voted yes for Paramore but shot down the measure for Russell.
Jones stood up during the announcements portion of the session and tried to voice his concerns about Russell's proclamation being blocked.
Russell thanked Jones for trying. "That you and (Rep. Gloria Johnson) presented this resolution is a high honour. That the TN GOP blocked it, I take as a compliment," Russell wrote on her social media accounts. "Their bigotry, sadly, is on relentless display. We have a chance this year to make a real change in TN."
