Most voters in Tennessee pay no income or payroll taxes. Next month, they will decide whether they want that to remain that way.
A state ballot referendum, Amendment 3, would write prohibitions of both income and payroll taxes into the state constitution, pushed by anti-tax advocates who are worried about previous government efforts to add an income tax.
For the foreseeable future, there is little chance of either tax being added in the Volunteer State. The Republicans control both the statehouse and the governor's mansion, and no one expects them to endorse either levy.
Nevertheless, anti-tax advocates are concerned that attitude may not last and have pushed to make it nearly impossible for any future administration to enact the taxes.

Not to worry.. the "TAX & Spend" Dems will simply have the Feds collect the tax on some lame pretext and pass it back to the state to pi$$ away.
