Today, officials in Nashville are scheduled to vote to reinstate former Tennessee State Representative Justin Jones.  State Rep. Jones and State Rep. Justin Pearson of Memphis were expelled by Republican lawmakers last week after leading a push for gun reform in protest on the House floor last Thursday. Memphis city council could reappoint Pearson during their meeting on Wednesday of this week. 

Even if both are reappointed by their respective city councils, the appointments are not permanent. Each would have to seek re-election to their respective seats in a special election that has not yet been scheduled. 

How did we get here? We’re joined by Blaise Gainey, political reporter with WPLN in Nashville with the latest.
