HB 228 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the advisory council on workers' compensation to June 30, 2031. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 50, Chapter 6.

HB 228 extends the advisory council on workers' compensation in Tennessee until June 30, 2031, by amending Tennessee Code Annotated sections 4-29-246 and 4-29-252. The bill directly affects the existing advisory council, which provides recommendations on workers' compensation policy to the state. Key provisions include removing an outdated reference and adding a new section to formally recognize the council’s ongoing role. This procedural change ensures the council’s continued operation without altering workers’ compensation laws or benefits.
