"Rep. Justin Jones left the Tennessee Capitol on April 6, expelled from the House of Representatives for leading a gun-control protest from the floor following a deadly Nashville school shooting. On Monday, hundreds of jubilant supporters marched alongside him as he walked up the Capitol steps to take back his seat.
"I want to welcome the people back to the people's house. I want to welcome democracy back to the people's house," Jones said in his first remarks back on the floor. "Last Thursday, members tried to crucify democracy, but today we have a resurrection."
In one of its first legislative actions following a shooting at a Nashville elementary school that killed six people, the House Republican supermajority ejected Jones with a 72-25 vote for defying House decorum — making Jones the first House member in state history to be removed from elected office for a decorum violation."
