Tennessee governor plans to sign bill that would let teachers carry guns in schools

nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/tennessee-governor-plans-sign-bill-let-teachers-carry-guns-schools-rcna149457

Quick Glance: Tennessee Lawmakers Pass Bill Criminalizing Adults Aiding Minors in Gender-Affirming Care

Tennessee's GOP-controlled Statehouse approved a bill criminalizing adults who help minors receive gender-affirming care without parental consent.

The bill closely resembles language from an anti-abortion trafficking proposal approved by Tennessee Republican lawmakers the day before.

Critics caution about the broad application of the law, ranging from discussing care options with adolescents to aiding in travel to states with looser gender-affirming care restrictions.

Tennessee has enacted more anti-LGBTQ+ laws than any other state since 2015, as identified by the Human Rights Campaign, calling it a staggering assault on their constituents.

Quick Glance: USC Main Commencement Canceled Amid Gaza War Protests

Protests against the Israel-Hamas war prompt the cancellation of USC's main graduation ceremony and numerous arrests at campuses nationwide.

Universities are grappling with protests that could disrupt upcoming commencement ceremonies and are considering changes to regulations regarding encampments and exams.

Some students demand schools sever ties with Israel, leading to accusations of antisemitism and concerns about safety on campus.

The wave of protests, inspired by events at Columbia University, has led to civil rights investigations into universities facing protests and complaints of discrimination amidst the Israel-Hamas conflict.
