npub1v2sycpx32th4h4aude3jq4g0kgj0p2t5062059l0fx0vcn8njs8spcmqq5 (npub1v2s…mqq5) I happen to agree with what these reps were calling for (gun control), and I also happen to be concerned about the erosion of democracy across the US, but in this case it looks like just standard procedure for when members violate the rules of the chamber in this way.
The 3 reps in question took to the floor with a bullhorn and led chanting of protesters in the public gallery. That would invite sanctions in any legislature anywhere around the world, regardless of who's in charge.
