Bill > HB1989

This bill amends various Tennessee Code Annotated sections to officially recognize the United States Space Force as a distinct branch of the armed forces, alongside the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. This change ensures that references to military service, personnel, and components in Tennessee law accurately reflect the current structure of the U.S. military, impacting definitions related to armed forces personnel, military service, active military service, and uniformed services, and clarifying provisions concerning veterans' benefits, employment, and professional licensing for those serving in or honorably discharged from the Space Force.
