Gov. Bill Lee today announced that the deadline for filing corporate franchise and excise taxes will be extended to July 15 and asked that schools stay closed until April 24, the Tennessean reports. Through an executive order, Lee also activated Tennessee National Guard troops, 250 of which will assist at rural COVID-19 testing sites around the state. Drivers licenses expiring after March 12 will be extended until May 18 and the state is also waiving emissions testing deadlines until that date. Read Executive Order 19 here.
