in Nashville, the House of Representatives passed legislation creating a study commission to examine Tennessee's death penalty system.
The legislation, which unanimously passed the Senate on May 24th, was approved in the House by a vote of 79-14 with 2 members present but not voting. The study will last one year from the appointment of the commission. The existence of a study committee would not affect any pending executions.
