Looks like taxpayers are on the hook for a Titans stadium after all.

Just a couple of days ago, Sen. Jack Johnson was on the radio proclaiming to be fighting on behalf of taxpayers and newly crowned as the patron saint of ridding the state of corporate welfare.

But the very next day in committee (the part of your elected representative's actions that you rarely get to see unless you follow Tennessee Stands), Jack not only led the Senate in putting the stadium into the budget but VOTED FOR THE STADIUM!

Conservatives across the state have been on the phones with their state representatives speaking against this madness. Taxpayers should not be financially on the hook for a new $2 BILLION+ stadium in Nashville. Let the Titans build their own stadium. That's called free-market capitalism.

But, they did it anyway as usual. Jack applauded the Governor for a budget 25% higher than last year's budget along with making sure that Tennesseans are excited about their 1-month break from the food sales tax.
