Sexton Sanctions Dems, Slashing Debate Time
Description
Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton imposes heavy sanctions on Democrats for protesting new congressional maps, removing them from House committees and reducing debate time. Democrats accuse Sexton of retaliation, while Republicans defend the move as a response to a Democratic walkout and coordination with paid protesters. The sanctions disproportionately affect Black lawmakers and eliminate the states last Democratic U.S. House seat, fueling tensions as the GOP strengthens its hold on Tennessee politics.
