Together, we can create a SAFER TENNESSEE
Voices for a Safer Tennessee is a nonpartisan statewide coalition dedicated to prioritizing firearm safety and advocating for laws to make communities across Tennessee safer for all of us.
Policies We Support
We advocate for policies that save lives while respecting Second Amendment rights. Our goal isn’t to restrict firearms, but to establish responsible boundaries for access.
Advocacy
This arm of our organization focuses on advancing policy at the Capitol, building strong relationships with lawmakers, and advocating for reasonable, responsible firearm safety legislation, including through strategic engagement during election cycles.
What We’ve Done
Helped advocate for:
- Jillians’ Law
- Glock switch ban
- Felons now prohibited from purchasing or possessing ammunition
- Background check improvements
- Firearm access restricted for violent juvenile offenders
dangerous bills we’ve stopped
- Allowed for carrying in posted places like K-12 schools, places of worship, and businesses
- Codified permitless carry for 18-year-olds
- Allowed open carry of loaded long guns in public
