Tennessee lawmakers on Thursday approved legislation drastically expanding the number of families who can use taxpayer money on private schools regardless of income, a long-sought victory for Republican Gov.

The law, pushed by Gov. Bill Lee as an immigration enforcement measure, will also establish a new immigration czar and office in the state.

Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.), a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said he was “surprised” that director of national intelligence nominee Tulsi Gabbard refused to call former NSA contractor Edward Snowden a “traitor” after being repeatedly pressed on the question at a Thursday hearing.

N.C., questioned whether his Democrat colleagues on the Judiciary committee were "still in high school" following their questions of Trump's pick for FBI director, Kash Patel.
