Carter Lawrence named new TDCI commissioner

Tennessee governor Bill Lee has appointed Carter Lawrence as commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance (TDCI), effective immediately.

Lawrence currently serves as chief deputy commissioner and chief operating officer at the TDCI.

In addition, he worked on Tennessee’s economic recovery group throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, assisting governor Lee’s efforts to reboot the state’s economy.

Lawrence's appointment comes after Hodgen Mainda, the previous commissioner stepped down from the role after just one year.

Commenting on his new role, Governor Lee said: “Carter Lawrence is a proven public servant who has stewarded key priorities for the administration throughout his tenure and I’m confident he’ll continue to support Tennessee businesses and consumers with integrity.”

“We appreciate his dedication to the TDCI and look forward to his continued service,” he added.
