CONA Update

Team Tennessee has been busy at CONA this week! We have spent the past few days debating, presenting, and spending time getting to know students from across the US. We had 12 students move from first committee onto second committee, an honor that less than half of CONA delegates receive. Out of these 12 students, four students moved onto third committee, a feat that less than a sixth of delegates receive. At the moment, we are in General Assembly. We are proud to announce that Tennessee delegate, Taylor Norton, made the General Assembly docket. He is one of forty students out of the 560 proposals that were chosen. He will present his proposal on legalizing firearms on college campuses tomorrow so be sure to check back to see if his bill passes. Otherwise, Tennessee students have stood out in debates and enjoyed catching the Blue Ridge Spirit. Wish us luck as we move into tomorrow's events!
