Tennessee House Speaker Glen Casada, R-Franklin, issued a letter yesterday denying allegations that he offered incentives to lawmakers in exchange for their votes in favor of the Educational Savings Account bill, the Tennessean reports. Reports have claimed Casada offered "incentives" to representatives, in the form of funding projects in their districts, as well as an alleged promise of a military promotion for another representative, in exchange for their votes. In his letter, which he posted on his Facebook page, Casada called the allegations "unequivocally false."
