GOP leadership passing balanced budgets with tax cuts for all is why Tennessee ranks 2nd in fiscal freedom.

This is an excellent budget that is not only balanced but cuts taxes for all Tennesseans. Washington, DC: take notes.

TN Republicans passed the most expensive budget ever and the spending cap was busted just like when the Dems controlled the legislature.
