House Bill 379 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 48-101-501(b)(15), which pertains to the solicitation of charitable funds. The bill removes a comma following the phrase "for a charitable organization" and eliminates the language that defines a person who plans, conducts, manages, carries on, or advises a charitable organization in connection with the solicitation of contributions.
These changes aim to streamline the legal language surrounding the solicitation of charitable funds, potentially clarifying the responsibilities and definitions related to charitable organizations and their fundraising activities. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of the public welfare in its enactment.
Statutes affected: Introduced: 48-101-501(b)(15), 48-101-501
