Bill > HB0939

This bill requires the Attorney General of Tennessee to submit an annual report by January 15th to three key state leaders (the governor, speaker of the senate, and speaker of the house of representatives) detailing the number of legal injunctions filed against individuals who have committed harassment against state employees during the previous calendar year. The bill amends an existing section of Tennessee Code Annotated (Title 50, Chapter 1) by adding a new subsection that mandates this reporting requirement. By creating this annual reporting mechanism, the legislation aims to provide transparency about harassment incidents involving state employees and potentially help track and address such workplace issues. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, as specified in the second section, which notes that the public welfare requires its prompt implementation.
