Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the commission on firefighting personnel standards and education to June 30, 2031. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 24, Part 1 and Title 4, Chapter 29.
HB 239 extends the Commission on Firefighting Personnel Standards and Education in Tennessee until June 30, 2031, preventing its automatic termination under sunset laws. This bill amends specific sections of Tennessee law (Title 4, Chapters 24 and 29) to update the commission's status in state code. The extension ensures the commission can continue overseeing firefighter training standards and education programs without interruption. This affects the commission itself and the ongoing work supporting firefighter qualifications across the state.
