Public Officials - As introduced, authorizes local governments to adopt a process by which local elected officials may be removed from office in a recall election. - Amends TCA Title 2; Title 8, Chapter 47 and Title 49, Chapter 2.

HB 92 would allow voters in Tennessee localities to remove elected officials like mayors, school board members, or city councilors through a recall election. To initiate a recall, petitioners must gather signatures from 66% of voters who supported the official in their last election, with strict verification requirements. If the petition is valid, a special election is held where voters decide by a 66% majority whether to remove the official. Local governments must first adopt this process via a two-thirds vote of their legislative body, and it does not apply to innovative school districts.
