I believe this video has been taken down. I cannot find it on the link from Don that others have used. Will someone else look and tell me if I'm crazy or somehow lacking the skill to find this video?

I think Jill did a very good job. I also think it's important to listen to what others are saying, as their concerns are valid.

He was extremely aggressive in his speech and mannerisms. It felt like the whole room was taken aback but maybe that was just me. > > > > > > > > > > > > Jeffie > > > > > > > > > > > > From: Tennessee Library Association and other Tennessee librarians <[log in to unmask] mailto:[log in to unmask] > On Behalf Of Donald B.

TLA was represented in both chamber hearings today and we visited several lawmakers. I’m the morning’s Senate Hearing, the bill was rolled to next week. In the House hearing today, things got a bit heated as we and those in favor gave testimony. Ultimately, the bill was rolled for the last time to next week.
