HB 1594 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the Sequatchie Valley educational development agency to June 30, 2032. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 64, Chapter 1, Part 5.

HB 1594 extends the Sequatchie Valley Educational Development Agency's operation until June 30, 2032, preventing its automatic termination under Tennessee's sunset laws. The bill amends specific sections of Tennessee law (TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 64, Chapter 1, Part 5) to formally include the agency in relevant statutes. This directly affects the agency's ability to continue administering educational programs and development initiatives in Sequatchie Valley. The change ensures ongoing support for local educational efforts without creating new funding or programs.
