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, providing them the same benefits as a resident annual sportsman license. To obtain this license, eligible members must provide a valid U.S. military identification card and their Tennessee National Guard membership information, verified by the adjutant general. Importantly, the bill specifies that the costs associated with issuing these licenses will be covered by the state's general fund, rather than the wildlife resources fund, ensuring no financial burden on the wildlife agency.
