House Bill 1907 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 50-1-103(a), by redefining the term "illegal alien" in relation to employment. The bill deletes the existing definition and replaces it with a new one that clarifies that an "illegal alien" is an individual who is not lawfully admitted for permanent residence in the United States or not authorized to be employed under the federal Immigration and Naturalization Act.

The changes made by this bill will take effect on July 1, 2024, emphasizing the importance of aligning state employment definitions with federal immigration laws. This legislative update aims to provide clearer guidelines regarding the employment status of aliens in Tennessee.
