Good news. A bipartisan coalition of lawmakers in Tennessee blocked an effort to give wealthy donors more power in the state:

“A push to raise some campaign contribution limits in Tennessee has likely died for the year. The bill received just 48 votes, needing 50 for passage.

"Ultimately, arguments from the minority party won the day. Democrats railed against raising the amount of money political parties could give individual candidates from the roughly $60,000 allowed currently to $150,000.”

…

“The legislation also would have allowed insurance companies to make direct campaign donations to candidate. And it would have dropped the requirement that corporations disclose contributions, though their political giving would theoretically show up on a candidate’s disclosure form.”
