Healthcare tension
Placeholder Image
“How many more people have to die?”That was one of the questions asked to state Rep. Judd Matheny on Friday morning during the Chamber of Commerce’s annual Legislative Breakfast.The question was about Matheny’s opposition to Insure Tennessee, an expanded healthcare plan that failed in the General Assembly last month. State Sen. Janice Bowling was on the committee that shot down Insure Tennessee and she voted against it. Protesters were waiting outside the TSU Research Center with signs, including one person dressed in a Grim Reaper costume.
