Memorials, Recognition - Fraud Prevention Month -
This Senate resolution formally recognizes April 2026 as Fraud Prevention Month in Tennessee to raise awareness about financial scams. It highlights the significant economic impact of fraud, particularly on older adults who lose an average of $83,000 per incident. The measure commends community efforts by law enforcement, nonprofits, and officials to educate the public and protect consumers from deceptive practices. As a symbolic gesture, the bill does not create new laws or funding but serves to honor the ongoing work to prevent fraud and assist victims.
