Senate Bill 417, sponsored by Lowe, proposes an amendment to Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 39-17-417(j)(12), which pertains to criminal offenses. The bill seeks to reduce the threshold for a specific offense by deleting the current weight of "One hundred fifty (150) grams" and substituting it with "Fifty (50) grams." This change aims to adjust the legal parameters surrounding the offense in question.

The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, contingent upon the public welfare. This legislative change reflects a shift in the state's approach to addressing certain criminal activities, potentially leading to stricter enforcement and penalties related to the specified weight of the substance involved.
