Extra charitable gaming application window for nonprofits
The law takes effect upon becoming law. Tennessee nonprofits get an extra application window for annual charitable gaming events held for their own benefit. They can apply to the secretary within five calendar days after the law takes effect, alongside the existing deadline. This window covers the event period from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027. The secretary must transfer an additional list of approved organizations for that period within ten calendar days after the effective date. That deadline is noon Central Daylight Time. After legislative approval, the clerk of the last approving house must electronically send the authorization to the secretary and the executive director of the Tennessee district attorneys general conference. The executive director distributes it to each affected district attorney general.
