Bill Summary

As enacted, revises one of the definitions of a "nonprofit organization" for purposes of the Tennessee Information Protection Act to mean a public utility organized or regulated, instead of only organized, under the laws of this state. - Amends TCA Title 47.

AI Summary

This bill amends a specific section of Tennessee's Consumer Protection Act by making a minor technical change to the language describing organizations. Specifically, it modifies Section 47-18-3302(16)(C) by replacing the phrase "organized under the laws of this state" with "organized or regulated under the laws of this state." This subtle change appears to broaden the scope of organizations covered under the consumer protection statute, potentially allowing the Attorney General more flexibility in enforcing consumer protection regulations. The bill will take effect on July 1, 2025, and represents a small but potentially meaningful adjustment to Tennessee's consumer protection legal framework. While the change seems minor, it could have implications for how different types of organizations are classified and regulated under the state's consumer protection laws.
