Bill > HJR1607

This resolution honors and commends Freely Fest, a new music festival held in Nashville, and its presenter, the Freedom Forum. The festival, which took place at Bridgestone Arena on April 8, 2026, celebrated the power of music and the freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment, which protects five key liberties: religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition. The event featured a notable lineup of performers and was hosted by Ariana DeBose. The Freedom Forum is described as a nonpartisan foundation dedicated to fostering these First Amendment freedoms for everyone. The resolution acknowledges Freely Fest's contribution to the arts and culture of Nashville and Tennessee, expressing gratitude for the Freedom Forum's work and wishing them continued success.
