Stand with Justin Jones and Justin Pearson!
Tennessee Republicans just expelled Justin Jones and Justin Pearson from the state legislature after their powerful advocacy for gun safety legislation.
This fight is not over. Donate now to help them run for re-election and make our communities safer. They are voices for the people, and we need their leadership in the General Assembly!
Historically, the fasces that one can see in the #Tennessee parliament might have had a different meaning, but now they have actually become symbols of #fascism.

As I frequently do on THE POLITICRAT daily #podcast: I read this (highlighted language) from an excerpt on page 171 from the must-read book “They Thought They Were Free: The Germans 1933-45” by Milton Mayer. Please read the book.

Rep. Justin Pearson is H. Rap Brown, 2023. He certainly evokes the spirit of that brother.

If what happened in #Tennessee today had happened in France you’d already have millions of people in the streets.
Honest Q: Why do you think millions of people aren’t already in the streets tonight in the US?
There must be protest marches across the U.S. for these two expelled brothers.

"Reps. Justin Pearson and Justin Jones are ousted from Tennessee House after gun protest, marking the first partisan expulsion in the state's modern history.
A third lawmaker, Rep. Gloria Johnson [who is white] survived an expulsion resolution."
