The Tennessee General Assembly Has Passed A Bill That Will Allow Teachers In K-12 Schools To Carry Concealed Handguns On Campus If They Meet Certain Requirements. A Memorandum Of Understanding Must Be Reached Between Local Law Enforcement, The School District And The Particular School Principal. The Measure Didn’t Pass Without A Heated Discussion…..
That Was Representative Jason Powell. Under The Bill, Each Interested School Official Would Be Required To Undergo A Background Check, A Psychological Evaluation, 40 Hours Of Firearm Training And Submit Fingerprints. It Now Heads To The Desk Of Governor Bill Lee To Sign.
