Executive summary: On February 5, 2014, members of the Tennessee Senate voted down an amendment that would have created a specific employment protection for gun owners. The amendment sought to add a provision to the controversial “guns in trunks” law passed last year by the General Assembly, which would have prohibited Tennessee employers from terminating gun owners based on their exercise of the rights protected by the guns in trunks law.
