Stacey Campfield (born June 8, 1968) is a professional "house redeveloper" and Republican member of the Tennessee House of Representatives from the 18th district (northwest Knoxville), best known for trying to join the legislative Black Caucus,<1> and for his sponsorship of highly conservative legislation such as bills to issue death certificates for aborted fetuses, to force women to look at fetal ultrasound images before having an abortion; for the right to carry guns onto college campuses; to eliminate the state’s pre-kindergarten programs; and for AB821, the so-called "Don't Say Gay" bill which would forbid any discussion of homosexuality in Tennessee elementary or middle schools.<2>

NASHVILLE — Despite some senators fretting about “weird things” and “strange people,” legislation to remove the current age limit for breast-feeding in public was approved by committees of the state House and Senate on Wednesday.
“Is 35 a child?” asked Sen. Bo Watson, R-Hixson. “I know that sounds crazy, but I’m thinking of a situation in a bar where maybe things got a little crazy. … I know I’m going way out on a fringe thinking a 14-year-old, but weird things happen in our society.”
Sen. Stacey Campfield, R-Knoxville, declaring that “at some point there should be some sort of line,” proposed an amendment to allow public breast-feeding up to age 3.
“There are a lot of strange people in this world,” Campfield said.
