Senate Bill 2139, sponsored by White, amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 49-1-225(f), by changing the deadline for a specific requirement. The bill replaces the phrase "By February 1, 2026, and by each February 1 thereafter" with "By February 1, 2026, and by each February 15 thereafter." This adjustment shifts the recurring deadline from February 1 to February 15 for subsequent years.
The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, emphasizing the importance of the public welfare in its implementation. This change aims to provide additional time for compliance with the specified requirement in the education sector.
