House Bill 7006, sponsored by Clemmons, proposes significant amendments to Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 2-16-103(b), which governs the composition of the state's congressional districts. The bill deletes the existing subsection and replaces it with a new structure that establishes nine congressional districts, detailing the counties and specific voting districts (VTDs) included in each. This restructuring aims to enhance clarity and organization in the representation of congressional districts within Tennessee, ensuring that the boundaries reflect population changes and other relevant factors.

The bill provides a comprehensive outline of the voting districts and precincts across various counties, including Blount, Bradley, Davidson, and Rutherford, among others. It specifies the locations of polling places, such as schools and community centers, and includes detailed listings of voting districts and blocks for Districts 1 and 2. Additionally, the bill allows for the adjustment of voting district boundaries and the identification of new precincts as necessary, ensuring that the electoral map remains current. The legislation is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, highlighting the urgency of its implementation for the benefit of public welfare.
