Legislative Session Complete

Gov. Bill Haslam

Close the book on this year’s legislative session in Tennessee: Gov. Bill Haslam has no more bills or resolutions awaiting his consideration.
The governor signed all the 524 measures sent his way this session, declining all calls for vetoing bills.
Others had unsuccessfully lobbied Haslam to veto a bill that allows people with handgun carry permits to be armed on all local government properties unless city and counties use metal detectors, hire security guards and check people’s bags.
