HB 469 prohibits landlords in Tennessee from banning tenants from lawfully possessing, carrying, or storing firearms, firearm parts, or ammunition in their rented homes, apartments, businesses, or vehicles parked on landlord-provided property. It directly affects all residential and commercial tenants and landlords statewide, requiring existing leases with firearm restrictions to be amended by July 1, 2026. The bill creates a legal remedy allowing tenants to sue landlords for damages, punitive penalties, and attorney fees if their lease violates this rule. The law takes effect on July 1, 2025, with a one-year grace period for adjusting current leases.
