Journalists, too, are not allowed to broadcast when the cameras are off, but politicians are bound by no such rules.

Representatives took out their phones and tweeted photos from the sit-in. Eventually, they began to use Periscope and Facebook Live to stream speech after speech demanding gun control votes from the House floor.

The sit-in dominated conversation on social media, and those livestreams made their way to cable news channels.

Republicans responded by calling the sit-in a "publicity stunt" and a "disgrace."

Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert of Texas confronted the sit-in Democrats, shouting that "radical Islam killed" the victims of a recent massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida nearly two weeks ago.

The massacre was carried out by a gunman who told authorities he was pledging allegiance to the leader of the Islamic State, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, at the time of his assault.

Though the House is now out of session for the rest of the month for the long Fourth of July holiday, the Senate will vote yet again on a gun control measure on Thursday that would prevent those on two different terrorist watch lists from buying a gun.
