Federal Judge Blocks Tennessee Law Enforcement From Enforcing State's Anti-Drag Law

A Tennessee district attorney threatened to enforce a state law banning drag shows that was previously ruled unconstitutional.
The ACLU filed a lawsuit against the district attorney on behalf of a drag performer and a local Pride organization.
A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order preventing enforcement of the law for a Pride festival.
The judge's decision follows rulings against similar drag show restrictions in states like Texas and Florida.
Advocates celebrate the ruling while critics argue it undermines efforts to limit inappropriate performances in front of minors.
