Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti recently sat down for an interview with David Plazas, director of opinion and engagement for the USA TODAY Network Tennessee. The two talked about a range of issues, including Skrmetti’s legal career, philosophy, and how he views his role. Skrmetti also explains why he supports legal challenges to federal authority and that one time (so far) that he could not "in good faith" defend a particular Tennessee law. Read an edited version of the interview or watch for the full video to be posted online.
