Yep Courtney Johnston’s bill was late filed twice and bans any new building with a server (small businesses, libraries, schools). It also will not pass before CM Horton’s bill so at best it’s ineffective, at worst she prevents new small businesses, schools, libraries, etc.

No words. #BookSky

Here's your blood-boiling story: Tennessee is targeting a last-resort public program for kids with critical and terminal illnesses and won't provide services without verifying immigration status and turning it over to the federal government first. Cancer? Too bad, kid.

Here’s my thing, CM Johnston had two opportunities to timely file here legislation. She didn’t. She filed two poorly written pieces of legislation, that the zoo data center wouldn’t be subject to if the permits have already been awarded, that the state can preempt.

Hanging up a “bike lane open” sign with no physical space for a bike to pass is incredible work

The THP appears to have violated Nashvillian’s rights on a massive scale while collaborating with ICE. TIRRC is suing to protect us. State officials are now making threats and attempting to defund TIRRC. I’m with TIRRC.

I’m happy for you

In addition to TN subsidies for corporate office-workers, many Starbucks baristas rely on SNAP and Medicaid to survive due to the company’s low wages.

A total of 22 Nashville CMs signed onto this letter urging Starbucks CEO Brad Niccol to turn the page on unfair labor practices and engage @sbworkersunited.org baristas in good faith.

Metro Council Immigrant Caucus Statement Regarding Freeman Webb and GSA Lease Agreement

there’s gonna be a Tempo library card @sandrafornash.bsky.social

I hope Tennessee republicans wake up in a panic from their sleep one night when they realize they’ve alienated the next several generations of voters. I hope their grandchildren and their children never forget what they did and hold it against them forever. That’s my Mexican curse 💋

Metro Council Immigrant Caucus Statement

And while I’d prefer to attend the State of Metro this morning in person, I’ll be watching remotely because ICE is all over South Nashville. I do plan to ask MNPD during budget hearings why they’re not stopping ICE vehicles without license plates, which is illegal everywhere.

Again, Nashville is one of the most dangerous cities to work in construction. I would encourage everyone to join us.

Restocked the little libraries and even added some “blind dates with a book” in there 📚 📍Linbar 📍Nolensville across from the zoo

As climate change accelerates and heat-related illnesses rise, the Trump administration is putting workers’ lives at risk to pad corporate profits. Weakening OSHA enforcement is unacceptable. It’s time to deliver for working people.

Building more housing lowers rents

Nashville is one of the most dangerous cities to work in construction in the South. This is why the Contract and Compliance Board can not fail. This is also why I have been so damn frustrated.

BIG NEWS! The little libraries on Linbar and Nolensville across from the zoo have been replaced and restocked. Go check them out while you catch the 52 🚌🚏Shoutout to Juan w/ La Brigada De Oro, for volunteering to put them together and members donating books!

I’m at Red Lobster 🦞 Does this mean I should run for At-Large 😂👀

Workers' Dignity is doing FREE trainings to certify local businesses as Fourth Amendment Workplaces. Basically, it teaches your workplace how to protect staff and customers, know your rights, and handle situations if law enforcement or ICE ever shows up. Nominate a spot or sign your own up now!

And we did it without Fusus or Flock or LeoSight or or or! Great work team, keep up the good work

Red Lobster: Fuck It, We Ball

“They were going to come. It was going to be a big thing. We were going to go to the beach right after. All those plans had to go out the window because they said ICE would be here."

Happy opening day! 💙⚾️

Just going to leave this here…

can you imagine working 5 weeks without pay and then they send this goon to breathe down your neck

People arrested while protesting ICE say federal agents took samples of their DNA. It's legal, but experts say the practice raises questions about what the government is doing with that genetic data.

Paging @urbaneastnash.bsky.social @wiley.bsky.social @sandrafornash.bsky.social @ginnywelsch.bsky.social please boost!

This is not the first time this country does this to Latinos. They did it to my grandfather during the Bracero Program. This is torture. Abolish ICE.

People are dying in a war no one asked for. People starve while systems profit. People are being kidnapped by ICE. We don’t have time for respectability politics.

Unless we are replacing them them immediately with permanent benches, they should be put back @nashvilledot.bsky.social

Undocumented people pay more in taxes than most corporations. But sure, let’s pretend this is about taxes. If it actually were, Lambert wouldn’t have voted to give corporations $1.5 billion in tax breaks and refunds last session.

Ogles is a blowhard. My Muslim neighbors are more American than he will ever be. And before that fools says something, my ancestors lived here when parts of the US where still Mexico. Vete à la chingada.

They are coming for people no matter their legal status! No one is safe. If you have a business that would like a free training on the 4th Amendment, please reach out. You might not think it's an issue for your workplace yet, but don’t wait until ICE is inside to find out you weren't prepared.

Something I don’t think can be emphasized enough is how fast ICE is shipping the people they detain off to another state. “Move fast and break things” but for people in potentially life or death situations. nashvillebanner.com/2026/03/05/j...

We will be sharing ways you can help us demand Estephany's release soon 🙏🏼 for now, please share this GoFundMe her husband has started: www.gofundme.com/f/prayers-an...

Sure smells like retaliation to me.

ICE agents out here breaking laws again

Last I knew this was illegal…

The Department of Homeland Security, which oversees ICE and Border Patrol, is using a broad web of surveillance tools to monitor, apprehend and intimidate the people it seeks to deport and the U.S. citizens critical of its policies. n.pr/4sig14N
