Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the First Tennessee human resource agency to June 30, 2030. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 13, Chapter 26.
SB 1521 extends the operational lifespan of the First Tennessee Human Resource Agency until June 30, 2030, by amending Tennessee Code sections related to the agency's structure. The bill directly affects the agency itself, ensuring its continued operation without changes to its existing functions or service provisions. Key provisions involve updating the agency's statutory references in Titles 4 and 13 of the Tennessee Code to reflect the extended sunset date. This is a procedural extension with no new policy changes, solely maintaining the agency's current framework for an additional four years.
