- MAYOR’S MESSAGE -
May 15, 2007
Vice-Mayor Howard Gentry
Members of the Metropolitan Council
Metropolitan Courthouse
Nashville, TN 37201
RE: Veto of Ordinance BL2007-1372
Pursuant to section 5.04 of the Metropolitan Charter, I am hereby returning to you Ordinance BL2007-1372 with my disapproval and marked “Veto.”
Veto Message
On Ordinance BL2007-1372
Government regulation or limitation of newspapers has been abhorred in this country since before we were a nation. As a direct result, the first protection added to the Constitution contains the explicit prohibition of any law “abridging” freedom of the press. The Founders saw and understood this to be at the core of protecting and assuring the presence of liberty and democracy here. Four years before the adoption of the First Amendment Thomas Jefferson wrote “…were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.”
As the Tennessee Press Association and our local papers have made clear, the ordinance before me is an abridgement of a free press and raises significant First Amendment issues. I cannot know how or when such issues would be decided by our courts, or how long the time or how great the cost to argue those issues would be. But we do know that every dollar spent on litigation and regulatory activity would be a dollar better spent on a teacher or police officer. And we do know the chill that would be placed upon freedoms this nation has understood since its start.
The government of Nashville will support the effort of the Downtown Partnership now working with the publishers to improve the location and appearance of their distribution. We believe this can be a model for all of our neighborhoods and other cities. And the Public Works Department will fulfill its obligation to keep our streets and sidewalks clean and safe now and in the future.
Preservation of a free press is not a simple or easy task. It is not always pretty or appealing to everyone, especially for the elected officials who are the subject of their scrutiny. The issue here is not one decided by popular opinion or the aesthetic of one day or time. This is an issue decided long ago by a newly free people who wanted always to be free and it falls to me now to assure this freedom is preserved.
Sincerely,
Bill Purcell
Mayor
Due to the Mayor’s message being received late on the day of this meeting, further consideration was suspended to the next regular meeting of the Council.
