The Tennessee Valley Authority Salary Transparency Act aims to ensure continued reporting of certain salary information by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), exempting it from the Federal Reports Elimination and Sunset Act of 1995. The bill mandates disclosure of salaries for TVA employees at or above a certain pay grade, while exempting this information from public disclosure under certain laws.

The Quiet Ledger grades legislation on its content. A bill grade is analysis of the bill — not a grade of its sponsor or of any member who voted on it.
