Rep. Martin Daniel, R-Knoxville, has changed the nickname of the proposed “Milo bill” after video surfaced of the legislation's namesake appearing to condone pedophilia, the Tennessean reports. Rep.

Daniel did not pull the bill and instead renamed it the “Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, Thomas Paine, & the MLK Jr.” bill.
