NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Just one day after the election, Tennessee legislators filed new language to bring back another school voucher proposal for students statewide.
House Majority Leader William Lamberth and Senate Majority Leader Jack Johnson introduced the legislation dubbed the Education Freedom Act of 2025. During the last legislative session, neither chamber could reach a compromise. However, $144 million remained in the state budget for vouchers even though it didn't go into effect.
