Tennessee Senate Bill 3, known as the Tennessee drag ban, is an anti-drag bill, which bans public "adult cabaret performance" in front of children in the state of Tennessee.

Considering it was intended to stop drag shows for kids, and probably nothing else, I figure an “anti-drag” nickname is fair enough, although it doesn’t specify the in front of kids part. Or the cabaret part, as I’m assuming drag queens reading books to kids or doing anything other than dancing in stripper outfits is ok still in Tennessee
At least they settled on a fairly accurate name, considering they could have gone the way of the fake “don’t say gay” nickname on previous bills and really lean into that fake provocative hyperbole
If I was a Dem, instead of anti-drag, I’d name the bill “Moral Panic against All Gays from Closeted Gay Lawmakers Bill”
But again props for at least settling on a fairly accurate nickname
