Senate Bill 1704, sponsored by Lowe, proposes amendments to Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 70, Chapter 4, specifically concerning regulations related to raccoons. The bill seeks to delete two existing sections: Section 70-4-112 and Section 70-4-122, effectively removing the legal provisions currently governing certain aspects of raccoon management and regulation.

The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, emphasizing the need for public welfare in its implementation. By eliminating these sections, the legislation may aim to streamline or update the state's approach to raccoon-related laws.
