Tennessee House Leader Faces Calls for Removal Amidst Democratic Rollback.

A Christian group called Faithful America has launched a petition demanding the resignation of Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton after he led a vote that expelled two Black lawmakers. The petition has gained over 12,500 signatures. The two lawmakers were reinstated a week later after votes by their respective local councils and commissions. The expulsion vote sparked accusations of racism, with a lone white lawmaker who stood with the two expelled members being spared.
