Republicans think that they won last night.
They did NOT win!

Here's a video of a 'Covenant Mom' embracing expelled Tennessee Rep. Justin Pearson.

- Make sure this video goes viral.
- Make sure everyone knows what this man stood for and what Republicans stood against.
- Make sure you never forget what happened last night in Tennessee and 9 days ago in Nashville!

THANK YOU Tennessee Three!
