General Assembly, Confirmation of Appointment - Lowell Russell, Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission -

It confirms his reappointment to the commission, which develops and oversees law enforcement training programs for all Tennessee officers, as authorized by Tennessee law (TCA § 38-8-102). The resolution highlights Russell’s background as a 14-year Tennessee Highway Patrol veteran (injured in 2012), his service in the House of Representatives, and his prior appointment to the commission in 2017. As a procedural resolution, it does not create new policy but formalizes an existing appointment.
