Bill > SB0097

This bill extends the existence of the Tennessee Monuments and Memorials Commission until June 30, 2029, by making technical changes to Tennessee's legal code. Specifically, the bill removes a reference to the commission from one section of the law (Section 4-29-246(a), Subdivision 51) and adds a new reference to the commission in another section (Section 4-29-250(a)) to ensure its continued legal recognition. The Tennessee Monuments and Memorials Commission is a state-level body responsible for overseeing and managing monuments and memorials within the state. By extending the commission's authorization, the bill ensures that this entity can continue its work of preserving and managing historical monuments and memorials in Tennessee. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, as stated in the final section, which emphasizes that the public welfare requires its prompt implementation.
