Expulsion should be allowed, but it should be reserved for rare and serious offenses. From what I’ve read, the protest consisted of them leading chats on the floor with a bullhorn that were deemed “disruptive”. So, hardly meeting that standard. It was good trouble, but trouble none the less. A censure seems far more appropriate as a response than an expulsion. Those are awfully nice glass houses Republicans are throwing stones from…

I think expulsion really needs to be reserved for security threats, violent behavior, traitorous acts, etc. I could have supported removal from committee assignments or censure, except it looks like their freedom to protest is protected by the TN state constitution.

And yet the call liberals snowflakes, I think republicans feel very threatened and so they turn to playing in a unfair, wrong and dirty way. It’s disgusting and it really shows they only care about their own personal agendas and wallets and not the fucking people they are suppose to be representing.What a fucking joke but sadly not surprised. I truly hope this hurts republicans in the long run, especially in TN

I find it absurd. They peacefully protested. Nothing they did was wrong. This fucking world scares me anymore.

Didn’t he just make it law that you don’t need a concealed Carriers permit or some shit? They care about life…… 🙄

Fraud I understand…but I just cannot comprehend how this could be legal otherwise… I went to look it up and also saw this: “Florida Democrats Chairwoman Nikki Fried and Senate Minority Leader Lauren Book were arrested Monday as they protested in Tallahassee against a bill banning abortions after six weeks.” Not to take it away from TN - but in the broader sense could this all be political retaliation to trump today?

Oh TN is a 💩 show lately. This isn’t being widely covered which is why I wanted to post about it. They’re doing it, so there has to be some legal basis I assume. The last lawmaker expelled was done so because they committed wire fraud. There’s NOTHING illegal about what these 3 members did.

They didn't hurt anyone. It's ridiculous to expel them for peacefully protesting such an important life or death issue.
