AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 7-68-104(d), by removing the phrase "less than ninety (90) days nor," which was part of a provision likely related to the timeframe for local government entities to comply with court orders concerning unlawful sanctuary policies. Sanctuary policies are local government practices that limit cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. The bill's stated purpose is to address immigration matters across various titles of Tennessee law, and it takes effect immediately upon becoming law due to public welfare concerns.
