“Tennessee House moves to expel 3 Democrats after gun protest”

Stories from the AP, the Tennesseean, and Fox review the resolutions to expel three members of the Tennessee House for leading students in the gallery in chanting for gun reform, without being recognized to speak.  (They’d apparently not been recognized all week.)  Of the three, two members were serving on committees and have already been stripped of committee assignments. 

Per the AP, only two other House members have been expelled since the Civil War.

Fox has the resolutions themselves, here, here, and here.
