Thank you so much for signing the petition! Tomorrow, the Tennessee State Building Commission is holding a rushed morning meeting at 8:00 AM to approve a "no-cost" lease to be handed over to Elon Musk. The Equity Alliance, an organization based in Nashville, is asking people to attend this meeting to demonstrate that Nashville does not want this tunnel.

You can show up at the Cordell Hull building in Downtown Nashville tomorrow from 7-9 AM. The meeting is being held in House Hearing Room III on the First Floor.

Sign up for the event here to receive more information from the Equity Alliance.

🚗 Driving Directions

• From I‑65 / I‑24:
  • Take exit onto Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd (heading downtown).
  • Continue until you reach Rep. John Lewis Way N (formerly 5th Ave N). The building is on the northeast corner.
