Tennessee Democrats face House expulsion vote after gun control protest
Mourners embrace after a funeral service held for The Covenant School shooting victim Evelyn Dieckhaus at the Woodmont Christian Church Friday, March 31, 2023, in Nashville, Tenn.
Republicans who control the Tennessee House of Representatives voted on Thursday to expel Justin Jones, the first of three Democratic members for their role in a gun control demonstration at the statehouse last week.
Last Thursday's protest saw hundreds of demonstrators flood into the statehouse four days after a Nashville school shooting ended with three 9-year-old children and three school staff members dead.
