WATCH: Democrats, Media MELTDOWN Following Democrat Expulsion from Tennessee House

On Thursday, Republican members of the Tennessee state legislature to unprecedented action to expel Rep. Justin Jones (D) who led an anti-gun protest last week following the shooting at the Nashville Covenant Elementary School.

The vote to expel Jones was 72 to 25. The legislature is set to now vote on the other representatives, Reps. Gloria Johnson and Justin Pearson, who led the protest, as reported by NPR.

The three lawmakers have understood that they haven’t followed the rules of order and decorum about speaking out of turn while on the House floor.

“The fact that this vote is happening is shocking, undemocratic, and without precedent,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre claimed. “Across Tennessee and across America our kids are paying the price for the action of Republican lawmakers who refuse to take action on stronger gun laws.”

“Regardless of issue or party, expulsion repudiates the right of citizens to elect their representatives,” Stacy Abrams (D-GA) wrote on Twitter. “When the cause is just, protocol should be able to withstand challenge. This cowardly act of Tennessee House Republicans stands in rebuke to the principles of democracy.”
