Tennessee nonprofits get extra gaming filing time

The law took effect upon enactment. Tennessee nonprofits get an extra five-calendar-day window after enactment to apply for annual charitable gaming events benefiting their own organization. This is in addition to the existing application deadline. It covers event periods July 1, 2024–June 30, 2025, and July 1, 2025–June 30, 2026. The secretary must send an additional list of approved organizations to the Senate and House clerks for those periods. The deadline is noon CDT within ten calendar days after enactment, using the same process as the earlier list. The law also repeals Tennessee Code subsections 3-17-103(d)(1)(A)(ii), 3-17-103(d)(1)(A)(iii), and 3-17-103(f).
