Correcting The Record On The 3/5s Compromise Friday, May 7, 2021
Members of the Tennessee State Legislature:
We are writing today to voice our disdain and dismay over the offensive comments given by Rep. Justin Lafferty, who stated on the House Floor in reference to the Three-Fifths Compromise that it, was a direct effort to ensure that southern states never got the population necessary to continue the practice of slavery everywhere else in the country. He then implied this was for the purpose of ending slavery. Other legislators were complicit in this effort by giving Rep. Lafferty a thunderous applause at the conclusion of his polarizing and offensive comments.
