Thanks for the suggestions, but all three of those clearly don't stand up to the lightest scrutiny here.

Nobody has a right to break the rules they agreed to and impede a democratic assembly, so there is no first amendment issue, and in breaking rules these representatives voluntarily stepped down, which is between them and their constituents. They effectively chose to stop representing their constituents. That is a big deal, IMO, but it's a problem that solves itself.

Meanwhile the legislative record shows that clearly it was not a racial issue, so there is no 14th Amendment issue to apply.

Those three charges are just so obviously baseless that it would be silly for the article even to bring them up.
