Constitutional Amendments - Proposes an amendment to Article I of the Constitution of Tennessee to declare that a person shall not be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, nor shall a person be denied equal protection of the law; defines "person" to include every human being from fertilization to natural death. -

This bill proposes adding a constitutional amendment to Tennessee's Constitution that guarantees due process and equal protection under the law. The key provision defines "person" to include every human being from fertilization to natural death, expanding the scope of constitutional protections. It would require future laws to align with this definition, affecting all Tennesseans by extending these rights to unborn humans. The amendment does not create new laws but sets a constitutional standard for enforcing due process and equal protection. (Note: This is a proposed amendment still pending in committee; it has not become law.)
