Nashville's Metro Council has unanimously voted to reinstate freshman Democrat Justin Jones to his seat in the Tennessee House. The GOP-led legislature expelled Jones last week for gun reform protests he led on the chamber floor after the Covenant School shooting.
The vote puts Jones into the seat on an interim basis until a special election can be held for the seat.

They didn't expel him for gun reform protests...they expelled him because he broke the rules of the Legislature decorum by disrupting official government business!
