Law Enforcement - As enacted, establishes a Tennessee safe initiative task force, which is administratively attached to the Tennessee bureau of investigation. - Amends TCA Title 8; Title 38 and Title 39.

HB 2157 changes the timeframe for notifying retired law enforcement officers about denied firearm permit applications. Specifically, it extends the notice period from 10 calendar days to 10 business days, requiring the state POST commission to provide this notification within the new window. The bill directly affects retired officers who apply for firearm carry permits and are denied. This is a procedural adjustment to the existing notification process, with no new requirements or substantive policy changes. (Bill text: Amends TCA §38-8-123(d)(2) to replace "ten (10) days" with "ten (10) business days.")
