• Description:
  The Menu of Suggested Provisions for State Tuberculosis Prevention and Control Laws (Menu) is a practical legal resource for public health officials and their legal counsel to consider in the enactment, promulgation, amendment, or implementation of tuberculosis (TB) prevention and control laws.
  
  The Menu contains a set of alternative provisions within each section. The Menu’s provisions include existing state statutes and regulations to prevent and control TB. Some of the provisions are reproduced exactly in the Menu as they appear in state statutes or regulations, some have been modified based on input received from TB and legal experts, and others are newly drafted. Although the document and this fact sheet refer to “states,” the Menu’s provisions are also appropriate for consideration by tribes, territories, or localities.
  
  The provisions in the Menu are intended to serve as a starting point – the suggested provisions must be considered within the policy and legal frameworks of the jurisdiction contemplating their adoption. Users of the Menu should carefully tailor the provisions to meet their specific needs.
