Purchasing and Procurement - As enacted, enacts the "Tennessee Procurement Protection Act." - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 56.

Summary

The Tennessee Procurement Protection Act prohibits state agencies and local governments from buying goods or services from firms that are owned, controlled, or otherwise linked to countries the U.S. labels as foreign adversaries. Vendors must certify they are not such companies, and false certifications trigger large civil penalties and a 60‑month bidding ban. The law is intended to keep state purchasing free from undue foreign influence.
