Campaign for Equal Justice Figures
I received a letter last week from Mr. Charles W. Bone, principle of Bone McAllester Norton, PLLC, and 2010 Chair for the Campaign for Equal Justice. This letter includes some surprising information about our Legal Aid Society in Middle Tennessee and the challenges it faces. In the Nashville office, there are nine attorneys who provide services free of charge to over 2,000 clients each year. That is a powerful figure, and evidence of the hard work that the Nashville office is doing.
JD Country Milk
If you've been along the back row of the Farmer's Market on a Saturday morning recently, you may have run into a long line that backed up to a gray-black refrigerated truck. This truck carries farm fresh milk of all sorts, and other goodies, which sell out by about noon on a Saturday. So it's a not-quite-so-secret secret that Nashville Foodies wants to let you know about.
Free Speech and Spending Billions on Politics
The United States Supreme Court seems to be taking every opportunity these days to dodge the intent of the law. A few weeks ago, the justices helped corporations funnel unrestricted moneys straight to campaign coffers by striking down provisions within the Campaign Finance Reform Act. Our President noted the strangeness of this action in his recent address to Congress, causing some of the justices to shake their heads. Americans who see the impact of these decisions are shaking their heads right back at them.
