Tennessee's first-in-the-nation law placing strict limits on drag shows is facing another legal challenge. The ACLU is suing a local district attorney who is warning Blount County Pride organizers that he intends to enforce the new statute.

Legal experts are at odds over whether to anticipate district attorneys across Tennessee enforcing the ban and whether the federal court ruling out of Memphis might apply to the whole state.
