Tennessee lawmakers consider statewide Silver Alert system

A new proposal for a state-wide silver alert in Tennessee is on its way to becoming a law.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A new proposal for a state-wide silver alert in Tennessee is on its way to becoming a law.

As part of the bill, the TBI would provide education and clear instructions for finding missing citizens with Alzheimer's, dementia, physical impairments, or disabilities.

This will also establish a uniform protocol among law enforcement in Tennessee.

The bill is currently being voted on in a committee and will move to a full house and senate vote before going to Governor Bill Lee for his signature if passed.
