AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Hunting for Heroes Act," establishes a new Tennessee National Guard sportsman license. This license will be available at no cost to members of the Tennessee National Guard who are in good standing, meaning they meet the definition of "member" as outlined in Section 49-4-1003 of Tennessee law and provide necessary verification, including a military ID and confirmation of their Guard membership from the adjutant general. Importantly, the state will cover the costs of these licenses from the general fund, rather than the wildlife resources fund, ensuring no financial burden on the state's conservation budget. The holder of this new license will receive the same benefits as a standard resident annual sportsman license.
