Tennessee AG sues Biden Administration over $1 9 trillion pandemic aid plan

Credit attorneygeneral.tn.gov FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) The Republican attorneys general of Kentucky and Tennessee have added their voices objecting to a rule in the $1.9 trillion pandemic aid plan that bars states from using relief money to offset tax cuts. Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron and Tennessee Attorney General Herbert Slatery III accuse the federal government of an “unprecedented power grab.” They filed suit Tuesday in Kentucky. They re requesting an injunction to block enforcement of the tax-related provision and asked that the restriction be struck down. The suit echoes action filed in Alabama by the attorneys general from 13 states that took aim at the provision.

Slatery joins Kentucky AG in arguing that restrictions on aid money are unconstitutional Tennessee Attorney General Herbert Slatery is suing the federal government, arguing that strings tied to the billions of dollars in relief money coming to the state via the American Rescue Plan are unconstitutional. Slatery, joined by Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, argues that a provision in the COVID-19 stimulus bill that prohibits states from using the funds to lower taxes “unconstitutionally usurps the authority of each state’s legislature to enact beneficial tax policies.” “The states have a constitutional right to implement their own tax policy,” Slatery said in a release. “We should not have to choose between accepting COVID-19 relief funds or surrendering to Washington’s attempt to override what only our elected officials in Tennessee are authorized to do.”

It s a process expected to take at least four months. And that s if anything happens at all given the preliminary legal skirmishing among the state s top Republican elected officials Gov. Bill Lee, who backs the bust s removal, and Lt. Gov. Randy McNally, the Senate speaker, and House Speaker Cameron Sexton, who have opposed removal.
