Repercussions Possible Following Lawmakers Disrupting a Meeting at the Tennessee Capital Amid Protest for More Gun Control Laws

Thousands of protesters flood Tennessee’s Capital as lawmakers gathered for their scheduled floor sessions following Monday’s deadly school shooting in Nashville that left seven people dead, including the suspected shooter.

Things became more chaotic after some democratic representatives including Gloria Johnson of Knoxville took over the podium with a megaphone during a recess.

Speaker of the House Cameron Sexton and Representative Jason Zachary say some action will be taken against those representatives in the coming days.

Representative Gloria Johnson of Knoxville tells us she knew she was breaking a rule when she approached the microphone but she was only trying to speak for the people so their voices would be heard and how she did it once the microphone was turned off. Johnson says they never meant to disrupt the meeting and it wasn’t planned. She says she doesn’t know where the megaphone used came from but their microphone had been turned off so they used that to speak for the people. Johnson says she doesn’t regret breaking the rules so the people’s voices would be heard.
