Boards and Commissions - As introduced, creates a rebuttable presumption that a license or renewal should be denied by the board of nursing if the applicant or licensee has a conviction for certain alcohol-related offenses that involved injury to another person. - Amends TCA Title 63.

HB 2107 would require the Tennessee Board of Nursing to deny a nursing license or refuse renewal if the applicant or licensee has a recent conviction for specific alcohol-related offenses that caused injury to another person. This applies to convictions within five years for offenses like DUI causing injury, vehicular assault, or vehicular homicide when alcohol concentration was at least twice the legal limit. The bill establishes a "rebuttable presumption" of denial, meaning the board must deny the license unless the applicant provides evidence to overcome this rule. If the board approves the license despite these conditions, it must provide written reasons for its decision.
