Senate Resolution 30, sponsored by McNally, seeks to reappoint Lowell Russell to the Tennessee Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) Commission. The POST Commission, established under Tennessee law, is responsible for assisting the Governor in developing law enforcement training programs and managing financial resources for the training of law enforcement officers in the state. The resolution highlights Mr. Russell's qualifications, noting his previous appointment in 2017, his integrity, and his commitment to law enforcement, as well as his extensive experience as a fourteen-year veteran of the Tennessee Highway Patrol.

Mr. Russell, who was critically injured in the line of duty in 2012, has a strong educational background in criminal justice and has undergone significant law enforcement training. The resolution also acknowledges his contributions to public service, including the naming of a highway segment in his honor. The Senate expresses confidence in Mr. Russell's ability to continue providing valuable service to the POST Commission and formally appoints him to this important role.
