State Rep. John Gillespie passes first bill

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – State Rep. John Gillespie, R-Memphis, officially passed his first bill as a member of the Tennessee General Assembly and the House Republican Caucus. House Bill 662 passed unanimously on Monday, March 22.

House Bill 662 revises current law to require the Community Services Agency Board to have its annual plan of operation to be reviewed and approved by the Tennessee Commissioner of Finance and Administration rather than the Tennessee Comptroller of the Treasury.

“Creating better oversight and streamlining key services makes government work better for the citizens of Tennessee,” Gillespie said. “I appreciate my colleagues in the General Assembly for their overwhelming support of this bill, and I look forward to passing more legislation on behalf of District 97.”

The Senate chamber unanimously approved the bill on March 8. It now heads to Gov. Bill Lee’s desk for his signature. The full text for House Bill 662 can be found here.

John Gillespie represents House District 97, which includes part of Shelby County. He is a member of the Civil Justice, Education Administration and Finance, Ways and Means Committees, as well as the Higher Education and Children and Family Affairs Subcommittees.
