House Bill 1496, sponsored by Moon, amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 10-7-604, regarding the data that the secretary of state is required to compile and publish annually. The bill replaces the first sentence of the section to clarify that the secretary of state will compile an update of the required data listed in Section 10-7-603 each year. It specifies that this compiled data will be published on or about November 15, and notably excludes personal mailing addresses and telephone numbers of members, which are deemed confidential and not subject to disclosure.

The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, emphasizing the importance of protecting personal information while ensuring transparency in the data provided by state agencies.
