HB 2619 Tennessee House · 113th Regular Session (2023-2024)

Correction, Dept. of - As enacted, generally prohibits the department from using state funds to administer hormone replacement therapy to state inmates incarcerated in a state penitentiary or a county jail or workhouse, or for sex reassignment surgery for state inmates incarcerated in a state penitentiary or a county jail or workhouse. - Amends TCA Title 39; Title 40 and Title 41.

This bill amends Tennessee state codes to allow the Department of Correction to submit certain reports electronically. It directly affects the administrative procedures of the state correctional system by adding a specific provision to the relevant statutes. The change removes a requirement for physical submission of reports, streamlining how the department handles official documentation. This legislative update simplifies internal reporting processes without altering the core operations of inmate care or facility management.
