State Senator Mae Beavers was chosen as chairwoman of the Republican delegation from Tennessee at a meeting on Thursday.
Linda Buckles and Chris Hughes will lead the credential committee, while Beth Campbell and Chad Blackburn will head the permanent organization committee.
Connie Hunter and Victor Ashe head the Platform Committee, while Betty Cannon and John Ryder head the rules committee.
Tennessee Republican Party Chairman Ryan Haynes said, "I am so pleased to serve alongside all of our delegates at the 2016 Republican National Convention.
I'd like to personally congratulate Senator Beavers and the rest of our newly-elected committee members."
The credentials committee will receive the credentials of each delegate filed in accordance with the Rules and submit the temporary roll of the convention, which will have been previously reviewed by the RNC. The credentials committee may hear and resolve appeals to the ruling of any contest adjudicated by the RNC Committee on Contests as to the seating of delegates to the convention.
The RNC chairman recommends a number of convention officers, including the permanent and temporary chairmen, the secretary and the sergeant-at-arms. The permanent organization committee will meet at the beginning of the convention to review the slate and make its recommendation to the convention.
The committee on the platform submits resolutions to the full convention body to be voted on as the official platform. The Republican platform is a formal declaration of the principles of the Republican Party, it was stated.
The convention rules committee will draft the rules for the 2016 Republican National Convention, which must be adopted by a majority vote of the full convention body.
