quote:

The measure amended Article I, Section 33 of the Tennessee Constitution, which states that "slavery and involuntary servitude are forever prohibited in this state – except as punishment for a person who has been duly convicted of crime." The new amendment removes the language allowing for these punishments.


I would have voted against it as well. The last thing people in prison need is more free time to come up with dumbass ideas which will just get them in more trouble. Clean out a ditch, pick up garbage, do something productive for a change.
