Senate Bill 1004, also known as House Bill 990, amends various sections of the Tennessee Code Annotated to address issues related to abortion. A significant addition to the law is found in Section 1, where a new subsection (f) is inserted into Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 4-8-305. This new provision mandates that the state capitol commission must submit an annual report to the speakers of the senate and house of representatives by January 1 each year until the completion of a monument. The report will detail any gifts, grants, or donations received for the monument, as well as the remaining funds needed for its completion.

The bill emphasizes transparency and accountability regarding the funding and progress of the monument associated with abortion-related issues. It is designed to ensure that legislative leaders are kept informed about the financial status and contributions towards the monument, thereby promoting public welfare as the act is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law.
