Capitol Hill Update With Tom Humphrey (#6)

http://www.capitol.tn.gov/images/slider/legislature.jpg

The ACLU of Tennessee and the Tennessee Equality Project have spoken out against a piece of legislation known as the Religious Freedom Act. Sponsors State Representative Bill Dunn and Senator Mike Bell say the bill would ensure the religious freedom of Tennessee businesses.

WUOT's Chrissy Keuper speaks with the Knoxville News Sentinel’s Nashville Bureau Chief Tom Humphrey about that bill and other legislative news…

Chrissy served as WUOT's News Director and host of monthly public affairs talk show Dialogue from late 2021 to early 2023. Her first job with the station was as weekend student announcer while earning her bachelor's in Anthropology from the University of Tennessee. She had previously been the station's local host for NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered news programs; occasionally filled in as host for WUOT's Morning and Afternoon Concerts; and won multiple awards for her interviews, feature stories, and Dialogue.
