Appropriations - As introduced, makes appropriations for the purpose of defraying the expenses of certain legislative enactments passed during the 2026 session of the 114th General Assembly; earmarks sufficient state funds for the purpose of funding any bill naming a highway or bridge in honor of a service member killed in action. -

HB 1908 allocates state funds for Tennessee's 2025-2026 budget, covering all state government operations including legislative, executive, and judicial branches. It specifically sets aside money from the Department of Transportation to fund highway or bridge memorials honoring service members killed in action, as designated by future legislation (per TN Code §54-1-133). The bill also acknowledges that memorial designations may result in lost revenue that would have been collected otherwise. This ensures funding exists when such memorials are approved, without altering existing rules for naming highways or bridges.
