TL;DR Summary

Three Democratic lawmakers in Tennessee face expulsion from their legislature seat for participating in gun control protests following the deadly Nashville school shooting. The Republicans accused the protestors and the Democrat House members of disruption. The resolution to expel the three states that they brought "disorder and dishonour to the House of Representatives through their individual and collective actions". The protests come amid the release of new details on the Covenant School shooting by Nashville police, who said on Monday that the shooter fired 152 rounds and that the attack was planned "over a period of months".
