SEE ALSO: A week after Orlando shooting, four gun control bills fail in U.S. SenateThe Democrats are seeking a vote on gun control measures in the wake of the attack at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando on June 12, which killed 49 people.
"Mr. Speaker, let's do the right thing," California Rep. Ami Bera said from the House floor on Wednesday. "Let's prevent that next tragedy. Let's save that next life."
Since it began Wednesday morning with approximately 30 representatives, the action has grown to around 170 representatives and 20 senators, according to House staff-- but you might never have known it. Media on the scene is not allowed to broadcast from the chamber because the House is technically in recess.

Journalists are in the press area, but they are restricted from sending out any visual media of the event.
That's not true of the members of Congress, who have turned to social media tools to bring much-needed visuals to the story.
Representative Charles Rangel used Periscope to broadcast the scene, while others tweeted and posted images to Facebook.
The social media blitz worked. As of Wednesday afternoon, #NoBillNoBreak was the top trending topic in the U.S.

With the cameras off, cable news coverage switched back and forth between covering the sit-in and not. But as members of congress began to tweet and Periscope their protest, others on Twitter picked up what was happening.
More politicians, activists and others began tweeting using, primarily, the hashtag #NoBillNoBreak, a reference to passing a gun control bill.

Among those leading the sit-in is Georgia Democrat John Lewis, who helped pioneer the nonviolent sit-ins that helped jumpstart the civil rights movement of the 1960s.

It's an unusually dramatic action by a group of elected officials at the highest level of government in decades, and it comes two days after the Senate failed to pass any gun control measure after a series of four votes.
Democrats in Congress hope to rally enough votes to pass two specific gun control bills, similar to ones that failed to get enough support on Monday.
One would expand and strengthen universal background checks for potential gun buyers, while the other would prevent those on a terrorist watch list from purchasing guns. That bill has been referred to as "no fly, no buy."
"All we're asking for today is a first step," Oregon Rep. Suzanne Bonimici said. "No fly, no buy. Good grief, why can't we get that passed? Why can't we just bring that up for a vote, Mr. Speaker?"
