SJR 644 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

General Assembly, Confirmation of Appointment - Garnett Decosimo, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Advisory Board -

SJR 644 is a confirmation resolution, not a policy bill. It formally confirms Governor Bill Lee's appointment of Garnett Decosimo to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga advisory board, as required by Tennessee law (TCA § 49-9-501). The resolution does not create new policy or affect any stakeholders beyond confirming an existing appointment for a term ending June 30, 2029. This is a routine procedural step to validate the governor's appointment.
