HB 1046Senate 20241x

Worsening Cronyism and Diluting the Tax Base Through a State Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC).

Against DEMs
This bill worsens cronyism through the "Tennessee Rural and Workforce Housing Act," by creating a tax credit for owners of low-income housing projects that receive federal housing tax credits. Under the bill, 50% of the tax credits must go to rural areas and any unused tax credits can be carried forward for up to 25 years. Support/Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. ACI advocates for lowering tax rates and ensuring taxation is structured in a broad manner – free of carveouts and subsidies to select individuals or industries – to prevent higher tax burdens on individuals not favored by government.
HB 1163Senate 20241x

Supporting Freedom in Healthcare by Protecting Healthcare Sharing Ministries from Insurance Regulations.

With DEMs
This bill protects freedom of choice in healthcare by stipulating that Healthcare Sharing Ministries are not health insurance and therefore, are not subject to insurance code or associated regulations. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Life. Americans deserve a patient-centered healthcare system that empowers individuals to take control of their health decisions without onerous government regulations that drive up the cost of care. ACI supports healthcare policies that focus on protecting the unborn and vulnerable at all stage of life, while ensuring women and families have alternative to abortion, better medical care, and ethical healthcare options.
HB 1631Senate 20241x

Strengthening School Safety by Allowing Private Schools that Serve Pre-K Students to Adopt a Handgun Carry Policy.

With DEMs
This bill strengthens school safety by reinforcing the ability of private schools to adopt a handgun carry policy. Under previous law, only K-12 private schools could adopt a handgun carry policy for school property. This bill expands the definition of permitted private schools to include schools serving pre-kindergarten students. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Community. The Left has waged war on the law enforcement community in recent years. As a result, law enforcement entities nationwide have been severely diminished. Americans lack confidence in the justice system at both the federal and state and local level. ACI believes that public safety is best achieved through upholding the rule of law, support for strong law enforcement policies, and practical solutions that benefit communities.
HB 1659Senate 20241x

Increasing Taxpayer Costs by Hiking Salaries of District Attorneys and Public Defenders by 31.6%.

ACI advocates for policies that substantially cut spending and shrink the size and scope of government – particularly programs that do not represent the core duties of government.
HB 1692Senate 20241x

Weakening Government Transparency by Providing the Department of Tourist Development a Broad Exception to Public Records in Bid for Super Bowl.

Against DEMs
This bill weakens government transparency by allowing records from the state''s Department of Tourist Development to be exempt from public records if the tourism commissioner and the attorney general deem the records "sensitive." Under the bill, sensitive documents are not released until after the disbursement of state funds, the conclusion of the event in which the contract was negotiated, the expiration of the contract, or after 10 years. The sponsor of the bill presented the bill as a way for Nashville to "get the Super Bowl." Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. ACI advocates for policies that strengthen government integrity and ensure all individuals in government are accountable to the people. This includes increasing transparency at all levels and safeguarding our elections.

Expanding Government Overreach by Requiring Age Verification for All Social Media Users.

Against DEMs
This bill requires social media companies to implement age-verification methods and obtain authorization from a parent or guardian before allowing an individual under age 18 to open an account. Additionally, the social media company must provide parental supervision options, such as viewing privacy settings and setting daily time restrictions. While the intent of this bill is noble, it is the role of parents - not politicians - to oversee their children''s social media usage. Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. ACI advocates to protect the individual liberties of all Americans – especially the rights enshrined in the Constitution such as the freedoms of speech, association and the right to bear arms.

Strengthening Public Safety by Allowing a Court to Require a Defendant to Serve 100% of a Misdemeanor Sentence.

With DEMs
This bill strengthens public safety by allowing a court to require a defendant to serve 100% (previously 75%) of their full misdemeanor sentence. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Community. The Left has waged war on the law enforcement community in recent years. As a result, law enforcement entities nationwide have been severely diminished. Americans lack confidence in the justice system at both the federal and state and local level.

Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Community. The Left has waged war on the law enforcement community in recent years. As a result, law enforcement entities nationwide have been severely diminished. Americans lack confidence in the justice system at both the federal and state and local level.

HB 1983Senate 20241x

Strengthening Property Rights by Providing Property Owners an Avenue to Combat Eminent Domain in Court and Placing Burden of Proof onto the Government.

With DEMs
This bill strengthens property rights by allowing property owners whose property is being condemned via eminent domain to have a court determine whether the taking is actually necessary to accomplish the public use. Under the bill, the government bears the burden of proving certain facts regarding the condemnation. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Excessive government control stifles innovation, burdens businesses, and restricts individual liberty. The abuse of eminent domain infringes private property rights in favor of government interests.
HB 2054Senate 20241x

Shifting Property Tax Burdens by Expanding Properties Included in the Lower Greenbelt Tax Rate from 1,500 Acres to 3,000 Acres per Landowner.

Against DEMs
This bill dilutes the tax base by expanding the amount of acreage of land permitted to qualify for the lower greenbelt rate under the "Agricultural, Forest and Open Space Land Act," from 1,500 acres to 3,000 acres per landowner. This tax rate, which applies to agricultural, forest, and open space land, would lead to about an 80-90% reduction in property taxes. Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. ACI advocates for lowering tax rates and ensuring taxation is structured in a broad manner – free of carveouts and subsidies to select individuals or industries – to prevent higher tax burdens on individuals not favored by government.
HB 2100Senate 20241x

Imposing Overreaching New Regulations on the Financial Service Industry by Banning Social Credit Scores and Mandating Service Policies.

Against DEMs
This bill prohibits financial institutions and insurers from denying or canceling services to a person based upon certain factors, such as their political opinions or religious beliefs, or by using a "social credit score." While noble, instead of weaponizing government, lawmakers should work to reduce regulations and expand competition so the free marketplace can better reward and punish financial companies based on the policies they enact. Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Faith. ACI advocates to provide equal rights for all Americans and ensure the equal application of law. This includes combatting attempts to provide special rights or benefits to individuals based on identity politics.
HB 2118Senate 20241x

Ensuring Broad Representation of Interests by Expanding the State Energy Policy Council to Ensure All Energy Sources are Represented.

With DEMs
This bill expands the number of members on the state energy policy council, from 15 to 22, by adding new members to represent the crude oil processing industry, nuclear manufacturing industry, farmers and small business owners, and localities in the state. Additional members also include representatives for various state departments, utilities and electric providers, and more. While the council should be eliminated entirely, this bill ensures special interests don''t unduly influence state energy policy. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. ACI advocates for policies that strengthen government integrity and ensure all individuals in government are accountable to the people. This includes increasing transparency at all levels and safeguarding our elections.
HB 2124Senate 20241x

Strengthening National Security by Requiring Law Enforcement Agencies to Cooperate with ICE to Enforce Immigration Laws.

With DEMs
This bill strengthens national security by requiring, rather than allowing, law enforcement agencies to communicate and cooperate with the appropriate federal official regarding the immigration status of any individual. This includes reporting knowledge that an alien is not lawfully present in the United States or cooperating in the identification, apprehension, detention, and removal of unlawfully present aliens. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Community. The Left’s promotion of an open-border immigration system places an immense drain on U.S. infrastructure and taxpayer resources ranging from welfare to the education system, while also creating serious law enforcement and national security issues. ACI supports the rule of law including strong border security and the enforcement of federal immigration law. ACI supports the cooperation between law enforcement jurisdictions which creates safer communities.
HB 2182Senate 20241x

Expanding Corporate Welfare by Increasing Sales Tax Carve-Outs to Include Data Centers Acquired Through a Merger or Consolidation.

Against DEMs

Specifically, the bill expands the definition of a "qualified data center" to include an affiliate who has acquired a data center though reorganization if that data center had previously met the capital investment and job creation requirements. Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Lower rates of taxation spur investment, hiring and economic growth. The tax code should be structured in a simple and broadly applied manner with rates as low as possible for everyone. ACI opposes tax hikes and cronyism within the tax code that provides select individuals, businesses or industries with special benefits or carve outs at the expense of the rest of the population.
HB 2269Senate 20241x

Expanding Competition and Increasing Access to Healthcare by Slightly Reducing Anti-Competitive "Certificate of Need" Regulations.

With DEMs
This bill no longer requires hospitals to obtain a certificate of need to establish a freestanding emergency department location within 10 miles of the hospital''s main campus. The bill also exempts ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) from the certificate of need requirements. Additionally, the bill also creates exemptions for PET scans and MRI''s, the establishment of an intellectual disability institutional habilitation facility, burn unit, and neonatal intensive care units. While the bill does enact new licensing requirements for ASCs, it provides considerable relief from certificate of need laws that limit access and competition within the healthcare industry. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Life. Americans deserve a patient-centered healthcare system that empowers individuals to take control of their health decisions without onerous government regulations that drive up the cost of care. ACI supports healthcare policies that focus on protecting the unborn and vulnerable at all stage of life, while ensuring women and families have alternative to abortion, better medical care, and ethical healthcare options.
HB 2280Senate 20241x

With DEMs
Under previous law, a special occasion license to sell liquor at an event could only be issued in areas where the municipality had approved the sale of alcoholic beverages at retail or for consumption. This bill would allow a special occasion license for on-premises consumption to be issued in a jurisdiction where the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption has not been approved if written approval to hold an event is signed by the executive office of the jurisdiction''s legislative body. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Excessive government control stifles innovation, burdens businesses, and restricts individual liberty. Overregulation empowers government bureaucrats at the expense of free enterprise.

With DEMs
This bill allows localities to cut grocery tax rates by adopting a "city tax rate," where the sale of food or food ingredients may be taxed at a lower rate or completely exempted.

The bill is expected to cost taxpayers $142.9 million over the life of the bonds (over $55 million in interest). Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Excessive government spending and the increasing national debt are a serious threat to America’s stability and is an unjust burden on future generations of Americans. The enormous national debt weakens the US economy and makes the country vulnerable to foreign adversaries such as China, which currently holds significant US debt. ACI strongly supports fiscal responsibility in government spending, reducing the size of the government, and overall spending cuts.
HB 2973Senate 20241x

Slightly Reining in Out-of-Control Spending Through a $3.4 Billion Reduction (6% Decrease) in the Annual Budget.

Amending the Constitution to Protect Tennesseans from Reenactment of a State Real or Personal Property Tax.

Expanding Government Central Planning by Creating "Infrastructure Development Districts" Empowered to Impose Fees to Fund Infrastructure Work.

Against DEMs
This bill authorizes localities to establish an "infrastructure development district" by resolution, where all properties located within the district will be subject to special assessments to pay for infrastructure costs, administration expenses, and debt payments. Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Lower rates of taxation spur investment, hiring and economic growth. The tax code should be structured in a simple and broadly applied manner with rates as low as possible for everyone. ACI opposes tax hikes and cronyism within the tax code that provides select individuals, businesses or industries with special benefits or carve outs at the expense of the rest of the population.
SB 2478Senate 20241x

Strengthening Civil Liberties by Prohibiting Government Officials from Entering Private Property Without a Warrant or Consent from Property Owner.

With DEMs
This bill strengthens civil liberties by prohibiting any state or local government entity from entering private property without probable cause to believe that a criminal offense has occurred or is occurring, the consent of the property owner, a warrant, or a recognized warrant exception. The bill also requires a member of a society incorporated for the prevention of cruelty to animals to notify law enforcement of the member''s intent to make an arrest or interfere to prevent an act of cruelty and provide justification before doing so. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Strong property rights is a fundamental cornerstone of American freedom. ACI condemns efforts to restrict this right as an attack on liberty itself. ACI supports measures to protect property owners from overreaching government and other bad actors.
SB 2496Senate 20241x

Expanding Cronyism and Government Intervention in the Free Market Through Local Voluntary Attainable Housing Incentive Programs.

Against DEMs
This bill expands cronyism and government central planning by allowing localities to offer voluntary incentives, such as expedited permitting, reduced setbacks, and density bonuses, to government-favored developers to build multi-family "attainable housing." Oppose is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Community. Limited housing supply has driven up the cost of housing in the United States and is impacting people’s ability to achieve the American Dream. ACI supports lowering housing costs by cutting excessive zoning regulations – particularly at the local level – as well as reducing regulatory burdens and promoting innovative technology.
SB 2506Senate 20241x

Strengthening Individual Liberties by Permitting Barbershops and Cosmetology Shops to Sell Alcoholic Beverages for On-Premises Consumption.

With DEMs
This bill allows for the sale of wine, beer, and other alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption in barbershops, cosmetology shops, and cigar bars, if certain conditions are met. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Excessive government control stifles innovation, burdens businesses, and restricts individual liberty. Overregulation empowers government bureaucrats at the expense of free enterprise. ACI supports a limited government agenda that cuts unnecessary red tape, fosters competition, drives economic growth, and empowers individuals.
SB 2508Senate 20241x

Worsening Cronyism Through a New Fund to Provide Grants to Live Music and Performance Venues.

Against DEMs
This bill creates the Live Music and Performance Venue Fund to provide grants from the fund to live music and performance venues, performers, and promoters. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Excessive government spending and the increasing national debt are a serious threat to America’s stability and is an unjust burden on future generations of Americans. The enormous national debt weakens the US economy and makes the country vulnerable to foreign adversaries such as China, which currently holds significant US debt. ACI strongly supports fiscal responsibility in government spending, reducing the size of the government, and overall spending cuts.
SB 2528Senate 20241x

Protecting the Integrity of Higher Education by Prohibiting Accreditation Agencies from Compelling Public Colleges and Universities to Violate State Law.

With DEMs
The bill prohibits an accrediting agency or association from compelling a public institution of higher education to violate any state law. Additionally, the bill allows a public college or university in the state to freely choose to pursue any federally recognized accreditor. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Community. Education is fundamental to upward mobility and overall success. ACI supports school choice policies (including charter schools, vouchers, education savings accounts, and homeschooling) and that parents should have the right to choose the best educational solution for their children.
SB 2566Senate 20241x

Strengthening Public Safety by Requiring Pretrial Monitoring for Defendants Charged with Felonies and Forfeiting Bail if Conditions of Release are Violated.

With DEMs
This bill strengthens public safety by requiring defendants charged with a Class A, B, C, or D felony to submit to pretrial monitoring if the magistrate issues conditions of release. Additionally, the bill requires courts to forfeit bail and issue an arrest warrant if a defendant fails to comply with the conditions of release. Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Community. The Left has waged war on the law enforcement community in recent years. As a result, law enforcement entities nationwide have been severely diminished. Americans lack confidence in the justice system at both the federal and state and local level. ACI believes that public safety is best achieved through upholding the rule of law, support for strong law enforcement policies, and practical solutions that benefit communities.
SB 2586Senate 20241x

Support is the ACI’s position based on the cornerstone of Liberty. Election integrity is an essential component of democracy under our nation''s constitutional republic.
