Members of the House of Representatives, including representatives Janice Hahn and Alan Lowenthal, staged a sit-in this morning on the House floor, demanding that Speaker Paul Ryan allow a vote on a bill that could possibly allow for the blockage of gun sales to people on the national no-fly list, and for expanded background checks. The sit-in, which started at approximately 8:30 AM PDT, had dozens of lawmakers seated on the floor in protest over the inaction of congress.
