From a Republican colleague of mine as he walked off the floor: "We're going to have a drink and a cigar. Enjoy your protest." Really.

— Ted Deutch (@RepTedDeutch) June 23, 2016

The optics of this are amazing. The GOP is literally doing the will of the big banks while Dems are begging for action on guns.

Shame on Paul Ryan and the GOP

.@HouseGOP shut off cameras & have kept them off for 2 HOURS as Democrats continue sit-in over guns: https://t.co/5Y78TvzXEq

The RTCA Exec Cmte asked @SpeakerRyan for camera access to cover the Dem sit-in. The request was denied.
