Bill > SB1515

This bill, by amending Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) sections related to state government departments and education, primarily extends the operational lifespan of the Department of Education until June 30, 2030, and makes a technical change by removing a specific reference to the department from a list of agencies in TCA Section 4-29-247(a), while simultaneously adding a new, clarifying reference to the Department of Education in TCA Section 4-29-251(a). The Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) is the official compilation of Tennessee's laws, and the Department of Education is the state agency responsible for overseeing public education. The bill also states that these changes take effect immediately upon becoming law due to public welfare concerns.
