Representative Castle, the bill sponsor, said: \"House Bill 9 38 creates a bait privilege license for the hunting of white tailed deer. Essentially, what we're doing here is we're trying to create a process and create some teeth that, you know, protect not only our hunters, but our wildlife as well. It's passed the senate 27 to 6, and, it's got a brings in $6,500,000 a year to the state.\" The committee then moved the bill to calendar and rules; the clerk reported 25 ayes and 0 nos.

A committee member asked whether the bill would apply in chronic wasting disease (CWD) zones. Representative Cappley responded that he did not believe it applied in CWD zones and said he would \"double check that.\" The transcript does not include a final determination on that point.

The committee discussion recorded in the transcript was brief and focused on the bill's intent and potential fiscal impact; no amendments were recorded during this meeting. The bill's Senate record (as stated by the sponsor) was 27-6 in favor; the committee advanced the measure on a unanimous recorded committee tally of 25-0.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Finance, Ways, and Means Committee\tApr 22, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Finance, Ways and Means Committee voted to advance House Bill 938 to calendar and rules on April 22, 2025, after sponsor Representative Castle described the bill as creating a bait-privilege license for white-tailed deer that would bring roughly $6.5 million a year to the state.","taxTitle","Finance, Ways, and Means, House of Representatives, Committees, Legislative, Tennessee","taxId",31062,"location","Tennessee","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6515919,"Finance, Ways and Means Committee postpones House Bill 1358 to 2026 for further work",25,88560,114020,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3084823-6fcba49d77024ddd92fc9074ea52959d&start=88&end=114","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3084823-6fcba49d77024ddd92fc9074ea52959d/thumbnail_88560.jpg","/articles/6515919/Tennessee/Finance-Ways-and-Means-Committee-postpones-House-Bill-1358-to-2026-for-further-work","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6515919-045be97fd46ce9c2d0739bc751a6b8d4/orig.mp4?Expires=1773268909&Signature=jlaKPWgTUuwTSN0H-S3uBycoSg--bzuE8Fe9U8xYtSacluaAjs7TSe3CIRmtMePPFiCxHAKP0Rix6j5RQqjps3Gk3K53bXeAyVri6nuiNdS~YT-horgcrptm-vsVRy3t1yXr8A~kgvRY4t1fzjzjGoKtW3KQlwcu-HzoWUiNC9a4sTRlOXzjoLl5bIY6n2MFN5kBuOFizVjZhGaQcLYuU7V0NNwiXCE5x2dbc3L4Gp6BFEXlZVZc2IP7gV~XkRYCxV5ruKvymfL5om5HG6TzGwV3DYhVkRw1OYAD1B1sZt30Y17gTtSecqZsWEjh7PYVTe-QpprMGE0qQ-LqE~RW2w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","A sponsor moved on April 22, 2025, to postpone House Bill 1358 until 2026 for additional work, and the Finance, Ways and Means Committee accepted the motion without objection.
