Constitutional Amendments on the Ballot
For the upcoming November elections, four proposed TN constitutional amendments will be voted on. These four amendments will be voted “yes” or “no”. Read below to see all the amendments and a brief description of each
Constitutional Amendment #1: “Right to Work”
Vote NO to constitutional amendment one. This amendment would enshrine TN law over unions into the state constitution. This law would allow non-union members to enjoy union benefits, which reduces the ability of members to engage in collective bargaining in their workplace.
Constitutional Amendment #2: Acting Governor
Vote YES on the proposed amendment 2 which adds more directions for legislators to follow in the state constitution in the case that the governor is temporarily unable to exercise power.
Constitutional Amendment #3: Slavery
Vote YES to constitutional amendment three. This amendment would remove language in the TN constitution that permits slavery as punishment for crime.
Constitutional Amendment #4: Religious Ministers
Vote YES to constitutional amendment four. This amendment would delete a section that prevents “ministers of the gospel” and priests from holding office in the state.
