Fox News
The Shelby County Board of Commissioners is to vote on reinstating Democratic Rep. Justin Pearson to the Republican-controlled state House in Nashville after his expulsion last week.
Johnson, who is White and reportedly did not use a bullhorn to engage gun control protesters, survived by one vote, whereas the state House voted Thursday to expel Jones and Pearson, who are both Black. Tennessee House Republicans, who hold a 75-23 supermajority, denied allegations of racism after expelling the Black lawmakers, who the party said "lead disrespectful and deliberate efforts to disrupt business."
"Our focus continues to be on the six innocent lives that were brutally taken last week at the Covenant School, not those who have chosen to make this tragedy about themselves," the state House GOP added. "It’s never been about change for the 3 #TennesseeMe members. Their only interest is being in the spotlight."
