Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) - As introduced, prohibits the use of the power of eminent domain over real property in an expedited manner during a declared emergency. - Amends TCA Title 29, Chapter 16; Title 29, Chapter 17; Title 54 and Title 58, Chapter 2.

Senate Bill 648 prohibits state or local governments from using expedited eminent domain (government taking private property) for real property during declared emergencies in Tennessee. It directly affects property owners who might otherwise face rapid government seizure of their land during crises like natural disasters. The bill amends emergency management codes to require standard eminent domain procedures, including full compensation, even when the governor declares an emergency. It specifically excludes firearms, ammunition, and related components from being subject to this restriction.
