Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the Tennessee commission on aging and disability to June 30, 2030. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 52, Chapter 8.
HB 1607 extends the Tennessee Commission on Aging and Disability's existence until June 30, 2030, preventing its automatic termination. The bill amends Tennessee Code Sections 4-29-247 and 4-29-251 to update references to the commission within state law. This extension ensures the commission can continue serving older Tennesseans and people with disabilities by providing ongoing policy advice and advocacy. The bill does not create new programs or funding but maintains the commission's current structure and responsibilities.
