SB 169 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Pensions and Retirement Benefits - As introduced, clarifies that the notification provided by a retiree's new employer to the retirement system concerning the reemployment of the retiree as a law enforcement officer must be provided in writing. - Amends TCA Title 8.

SB 169 requires a retiree's new employer to provide written notification to the retirement system when a retired law enforcement officer is rehired. This change modifies Tennessee Code Annotated § 8-36-809(b)(7)(A) to mandate written communication, replacing any previous verbal or informal notice. The bill directly affects retired law enforcement officers who return to work in law enforcement roles, ensuring the retirement system receives formal documentation of their reemployment. It is a procedural update to clarify administrative requirements for pension records.
