He ran for Mayor of Memphis in a special election held on October 15, 2009, losing to A C Wharton.Lowery's tenure as Mayor Pro Tem was marked by attempts to remove officials from Herenton's controversial prior administration and efforts at transparency in government.In the past, Lowery has served as a board member of the Tennessee Municipal League, Tennessee Quality, Goals for Memphis, Leadership Memphis, Goodwill Boys Club, The Memphis Zoo, the Headstart Policy Council, and the Board of Trustees of LeMoyne-Owen College.In the national arena, he is a member of the Board of Directors for National League of Cities.

Lowery reportedly pre-arranged the greeting with the leader's handlers.In July 2015, Lowery moved to unearth the remains of Civil War Leader Nathan Bedford Forest and his wife and have his memorial removed because: "It is no longer politically correct to glorify someone who was a slave trader, someone who was a racist, on public property."".
