State Employees - As introduced, creates a procedure for a state employee who has reasonable cause to suspect that improper government conduct or a crime has occurred to report the matter to a supervisor and for the supervisor to report that information to the attorney general and reporter. - Amends TCA Title 8 and Title 50.

SB 2487 requires Tennessee state employees who suspect improper government conduct (like fraud, theft, or conflicts of interest) or crimes committed in their official duties to report it to their supervisor. Supervisors must then forward these reports to the Attorney General within a specified timeframe. The bill prohibits job penalties (such as firing, demotion, or pay cuts) against employees who make good-faith reports and mandates all state agencies to create written policies about reporting procedures. It also requires the Attorney General to annually report on the number of submissions and how they were handled. This law directly affects all state employees and their supervisors across Tennessee government agencies.
