Amends TCA Title 4; Title 8; Title 9, Chapter 8; Title 29, Chapter 20 and Title 49.

Tennessee HB1270 amends existing laws regarding the use of preferred pronouns and names in public schools, local education agencies (LEAs), and public institutions of higher education. It prohibits requiring students, teachers, employees, and contractors to use preferred pronouns or names inconsistent with their biological sex, while providing civil immunity for those who do not comply with such requests. Key provisions include the establishment of a cause of action for individuals who face adverse actions for refusing to use preferred pronouns or names, and the requirement for institutions to notify affected parties of these prohibitions annually.
