HB 1595 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the sex offender treatment board to June 30, 2034. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 39, Chapter 13, Part 7.

HB 1595 extends the expiration date of the Tennessee Sex Offender Treatment Board to June 30, 2034, ensuring the board continues operating until that date. The board, established under state law to oversee treatment programs for sex offenders, will maintain its current responsibilities without changes to its duties or funding. The bill also sets June 30, 2034, as the termination date for other state entities created in 2032, but this provision is separate from the board’s extension. This procedural change only affects the board’s operational timeline, not its functions or structure.
