The House Democrats' sit-in for gun control bills (live-streamed from their cellphones here) continued through last night and garnered large quantities of food donations from supporters across the country.
Here's what they ate while the Republicans headed home early for break:
A buffet was laid out in the cloakroom, which lawmakers gladly stood up to eat.

Representative John Yarmuth (KY-3) appreciated the efforts of his constituents to make sure he was properly fed.
My office says people back home are calling asking to send pizzas to the floor. Louisville gets it. We're in this together. #NoBillNoBreak
