House Bill 7077, also known as Senate Bill 7107, amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 49-6-804, regarding law enforcement agencies' access to security systems during emergencies. The bill modifies the existing law by deleting the previous language in subdivision (g)(1) and replacing it with a requirement that each local education agency (LEA) or public charter school must provide immediate access to their security systems for responding law enforcement agencies during drills or emergency situations.

This change aims to enhance the collaboration between educational institutions and law enforcement during critical incidents, ensuring that law enforcement can effectively respond to emergencies. The bill is set to take effect on October 1, 2023, emphasizing the importance of public safety in educational environments.
