TL;DR

A federal judge in Tennessee has issued a temporary restraining order against the impending "drag ban" after siding with a Memphis-based LGBTQ theatre group that filed suit against the state. The judge agreed the law as written is too vague and leaves the door open for differing outcomes based on a person's assessment of what is, and isn't, obscene. The order will be in place for at least 14 days, though an extension is possible.
