A bill has been passed by Republicans in the Tennessee House of Representatives that affects same-sex marriages. The bill states that individuals and private organizations are not required to recognize these marriages. It also provides protection for those who refuse to officiate or participate in same-sex wedding celebrations, shielding them from professional discipline.
Further details on this development are available from LGBTQ Nation, which has been following the story in the local area.
