House Bill 391 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 48-101-513(h)(3), to change the timing requirements for filing fundraising campaign literature. The bill replaces the existing requirement of filing "Prior to the commencement of each solicitation campaign" with a new timeline that mandates filing "Within ninety (90) days after a solicitation campaign has been completed or within ninety (90) days after the end of the fiscal year for a campaign that lasts more than one (1) year." Additionally, the bill removes the phrase ", which is utilized in the campaign" and eliminates the requirement for notifying the secretary of state within seven days of any modifications to campaign solicitation literature or promotional materials.

These changes aim to streamline the reporting process for fundraising campaigns, allowing for more flexibility in the timing of submissions while still ensuring accountability. The bill is set to take effect upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of public welfare in its implementation.
