College students who participate in walkouts could be suspended or expelled under a new measure passed by the Tennessee General Assembly on Monday.

The Charlie Kirk Act, named for the late conservative activist, addresses free speech on college campuses.

HB 1476/ SB 1741 would require colleges and universities to sign the University of Chicago’s policy on freedom of speech — and prohibit administrations from uninviting a speaker based on their opposition to abortion or LGBTQ rights.
