State help for county election costs

Beginning May 7, 2026, the law covers 10% of Tennessee counties' mandated costs to implement congressional districts. This funding depends on Senate Bill 4/House Bill 3 becoming law. The Secretary of State also gets $3.1547 million in one-time funding to reimburse county election commissions' 2026 congressional election expenses. That funding depends on Senate Bill 1/House Bill 1 becoming law. These funds help county budgets, not households directly.
