Fiona Whelan Prine urged lawmakers to expand absentee voting so Tennesseans would not have to put their health at risk.
Fiona Whelan and John Prine attend the 62nd Annual GRAMMY Awards at Staples Center on Jan. 26, 2020 in Los Angeles.
“This is not nor should it be a partisan issue,” said Whelan Prine, who spoke over a video livestream and did not attend in person. “This is a serious health issue. And you, as our representatives, must advocate for our health, our safety and our right to participate in our Americana political process.”
“I do not wish this pain and trauma on any other American family, especially not my fellow Tennesseans,” she added. Tennessee voters can request absentee ballots starting May 8 for the Aug. 6 primary election. Early voting starts July 17.
