Demand the Tennessee GOP restore the Democrats they kicked out of the House for supporting gun reform protests!

In a stunning show of political vindictiveness, the GOP-held Tennessee state house has expelled two of its Democratic members for protesting for gun reform with student activists tired of seeing their peers shot dead in their classrooms.

Reps. Justin Jones and Justin Pearson were kicked out after they led chants from the House floor. The resolutions accused them of "disorderly behavior" and were EXPEDITED through the House by heartless Republicans intent on squashing any dissent in their ranks.

Demand the Tennessee GOP restore the Democrats they kicked out of the House for supporting gun reform protests!

The extraordinary move by Tennessee Republicans is not only an outrageous attempt to muzzle the free speech of elected members of the House, it is also a condescending dismissal of the hundreds of young Tennesseans who have been protesting outside the statehouse, demanding their voices be heard.

This flagrant attack on democracy and the people's right to choose their representatives must NOT be allowed to stand!

Demand the Tennessee GOP restore the Democrats they kicked out of the House for supporting gun reform protests!
