Original Note:
While the HB 878 allows government officials to refuse to solemnize (officiate or perform) a civil ceremony based on conscience or religious belief, it doesn’t allow the denial of a marriage license. The issuing of licenses is separate from solemnization of the marriage. https://www.knoxcounty.org/clerk/marriagelicense.php https://legiscan.com/TN/text/HB0878/2023
