AI Summary

This bill, by amending Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) Title 53 and Title 68, which are sections of state law dealing with health, removes an outdated section of law that established a task force. This task force was originally created to investigate and recommend methods for preventing cardiovascular disease, hypertension (high blood pressure), and diabetes within the state. The bill's primary action is to delete this now-obsolete provision, meaning the task force and its related study will no longer be part of the official state code.
