HB 570 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

State Government - As introduced, directs the state capitol commission to be responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the monument to unborn children through funds appropriated to the commission. - Amends TCA Title 4; Title 8; Title 20; Title 29; Title 36; Title 39; Title 40; Title 41; Title 49; Title 56; Title 63; Title 68 and Title 71.

HB 570 directs the Tennessee State Capitol Commission to be responsible for maintaining the "monument to unborn children" using funds already allocated to the commission. This bill amends specific sections of Tennessee law to assign this maintenance duty, which directly affects the Capitol Commission's responsibilities. The key provision requires the Commission to cover upkeep and repairs of the monument through existing appropriations, without creating new funding. The bill does not change the monument's purpose or create new policy, but formally assigns maintenance duties to the Commission.
