Tennessee state Senate passes bill to build monument for 'victims of abortion'
The Republican-controlled Tennessee state Senate on Tuesday passed a bill to build a monument for “victims of abortion” on Capitol grounds, WREG-TV reported.
The proposal would privately raise money to build a memorial named “Tennessee Monument to Unborn Children, In Memory of the Victims of Abortion: Babies, Women, and Men.”
The 23-3 vote on Monday sends the bill back to the state House, which has already passed the measure once before.
If approved, it will head to the desk of Gov. Bill Haslam (R) to be signed into law.
The monument would be placed on Capitol grounds in Nashville.

Understand this is the same legislature that wishes to punish the city of Memphis for taking down a statue of Confederate General Nathanial Bedford Forrest the founder of the Ku Klux Klan.

Probably nothing important happening in Tennessee today... 
So many infants and children die every day and their families cannot afford a basic headstone. What a waste of money that could go toward actually doing good for the communities.
