Bill > HB2536

This bill amends Tennessee law to change the composition of several state insurance committees. Specifically, it replaces the member of the state insurance committee who was appointed by the Tennessee State Employees Association with a "preferred service employee," which refers to a state employee with a certain level of job security. It also alters the local education insurance committee by having the Commissioner of Finance and Administration, rather than the Tennessee School Boards Association, select the representative from local school boards. Finally, the bill changes the local government insurance committee by removing members appointed by the Tennessee Municipal League and Tennessee County Services Association and instead having the Commissioner of Finance and Administration appoint members who are themselves employees of a municipality and a county government, respectively. These changes aim to adjust how representatives are chosen for committees that oversee group insurance plans for state and local employees and officials.
