The Tennessee Senate last night voted to approve a bill that would allow it to double current campaign contribution limits, a week after the House killed a bill that would have required legislators to report gifts worth more than $100, the Tennessean reports. The Senate bill, which comes from Sen. Ken Yager, R-Kingston, would allow Senate campaign donation limits to reset every two years instead of four. The transparency bill died in the House Local Government Subcommittee on March 28.
