Marsy's Law for All

09/08/2026

🗓️ Tennessee, mark your calendars: this November, you have the chance to make history for crime victims.

After passing the General Assembly with bipartisan support, Marsy's Law for Tennessee is officially headed to the ballot on November 3, 2026! If approved, it will give crime victims in Tennessee constitutional rights they don't currently have, including the right to be notified of court proceedings, the right to be heard, and the right to be treated with dignity throughout the justice process.

It's been more than 25 years since Tennessee last updated victims' rights in its constitution. This is our chance to change that.
