Fiscal Summary STATE GOVERNMENTEXPENDITURESIncarceration$2,434,800 OTHER FISCAL IMPACT The proposed legislation is estimated to increase local revenue in counties that charge defendants less than $15 for the monthly fee related to probation and judicial diversion. Due to multiple unknown factors, the extent and timing of any increase in local revenue cannot be determined with reasonable certainty. Bill Summary ON APRIL 21, 2026, THE HOUSE ADOPTED AMENDMENT #1 AND PASSED HOUSE BILL 2369, AS AMENDED. AMENDMENT #1 rewrites the bill to, instead, revise present law that authorizes the attorney general to bring an action to enforce compliance with the Tennessee Abortion-Inducing Drug Risk Protocol Act or intervene as a matter of right in a case in which the constitutionality of such act is challenged. This amendment removes this provision and authorizes, instead, the attorney general to bring a civil action to (i) enforce compliance with the act; or (ii) impose a civil penalty, as provided below, for a knowing violation of the present law prohibition on a manufacturer, supplier, pharmacy, physician, qualified physician, or other person from providing an abortion-inducing drug to a patient via courier, delivery, or mail service. Generally, this amendment authorizes the attorney general to impose a civil penalty $10,000 per such violation. However, if a court determines that an individual suffered serious bodily injury or death due to a violation, then the attorney general may impose a civil penalty of $1,000,000. Each individual to whom an abortion-inducing drug is provided constitutes a separate violation.
