Tennesse Gov. Bill Lee (R) called on the state legislature to convene for a special legislative session focused on gun reform and public safety, just one month following a school shooting in Nashville.

Lee's office made the announcement on Tuesday, adding that the session will begin on August 21.

The governor's office also noted that Lee will meet with legislators, stakeholders and local residents throughout the summer to discuss practical solutions ahead of the special session.

"After speaking with members of the General Assembly, I am calling for a special session on August 21 to continue our important discussion about solutions to keep Tennessee communities safe and preserve the constitutional rights of law-abiding citizens," Lee said in a statement.
