The TN state legislature is wrapping up for the year. They had many opportunities to address the affordable housing crisis. And protect renters from predatory landlords.

Especially important when tenants need to address hazardous conditions & maintenance problems - 1 FAILED, 1 REMOVED Homes not Hedge funds Act: would prevent certain businesses from buying 100+ single-family homes in some counties. This would reduce price-gouging & runaway gentrification - FAILED
