The Tennessee drag law marks the second major proposal targeting LGBTQ+ people passed by state lawmakers this year. The Republican governor, Bill Lee, signed into law legislation banning most gender-affirming care.
Lee has faced criticism for approving the anti-drag show law, particularly since a photo surfaced of him as a high school senior dressed in women’s clothing in 1977.
