AI Summary
This bill amends Tennessee state law by officially designating November as "Diabetes Awareness Month" throughout the state. The legislation adds a new section to Title 15, Chapter 2, Part 1 of the Tennessee Code Annotated, which formally recognizes November as an annual period for raising awareness about diabetes. By creating this official observance, the bill aims to draw public attention to diabetes, a chronic health condition that affects metabolism and blood sugar levels, and potentially encourage education, prevention, and support for those living with the disease. The act will take effect immediately upon becoming law, reflecting the state legislature's view that this recognition serves the public welfare.
