Meanwhile:
Recently expelled former Tennessee Reps. Justin Jones and Justin Pearson, who were ousted last week from the Republican-led Tennessee House for joining a protest on the House floor demanding stricter gun control, are seeking reinstatement.
Nashville’s metro council has been called to a special meeting on Monday, during which it will likely vote to install Jones as his own interim successor, effectively giving him his seat back for the time being. A vote to reappoint Pearson to his seat will take place Wednesday, according to Shelby County Board of Commissioners Chairman Mickell Lowery.
Special elections will be held for the vacated seats in the coming months, and both Pearson and Jones said Sunday on “Meet the Press” that they intend to run in those elections to officially retake their positions.
On March 30, as protesters gathered at the State Capitol, the two Democratic representatives, alongside a third Democrat, Rep. Gloria Johnson, joined the protest on the House floor. Pearson and Jones led a chant of “power to the people” using a megaphone.

Big mistake for the Republican party. Made two intelligent and strong men get national attention. I loved the V.P Harris showed-up. I was pissed off and I feel good now. Whole country is watching this state. Both young men stood their ground. I believe there will be change. In Wisconsin, the young folks changed the election. I believe the young people who demonstrated in Tennessee. They will be voting for new gun laws and respect. Sometime we need a kick in the head. To change our world. Both young men impressed me. I would vote for them. Give the white congresswoman, a head up. She told the press. I was saved because I was white.
Yessss, but still being disrespected. I have never had any reason to go to TN and I am grateful for that…. Even Naomi Judd left this mortal coil by way of TN and that daughter of hers is soooo mean… I just can NOT with TN so when it came to the two Justins I was not surprised. They should have battle chests full of money just to sue the state for eventual discrimination that is bound to happen. It’s totally guaranteed. I can not fathom how anyone expects some folks to become “kind” and “gentle” at all. Why? Remember The Hatfields and the McCoys. Some folks want peace and security while others thrive on war and instability. (Oopssss, I feel a poem coming on! LOL!}
