Senate Joint Resolution 89, sponsored by Johnson, seeks to confirm the reappointment of David Jones to the Tennessee Public Utility Commission for a term that will last until June 30, 2030. The resolution highlights that the commission consists of two members appointed by the governor, and Governor Bill Lee has chosen to reappoint Jones, who has previously served as chairman of the commission and is currently a member of the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners Gas Committee. Jones brings extensive experience from his previous roles as CEO of Complete Holdings Group and EnableComp LLC, as well as nearly three decades in the energy industry.

The resolution emphasizes Jones's qualifications, including his educational background with a Bachelor of Science in Business from the University of Tennessee and an MBA from the University of Houston. His experience in both public and private sectors is noted as a significant asset to the commission. The resolution concludes by stating that the appointment must be confirmed by a joint resolution from both houses of the General Assembly, thereby formalizing Jones's continued service on the commission.
