THIS is the kind of Democratic leadership we have been craving:
Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey is delivering a 24-hour (and counting!) speech on the floor to speak out against Donald Trump and his administration’s extremist agenda.
Sen. Booker has vowed to keep going as long as physically possible to inspire us all to keep fighting. But right now, we need him to know that he has the full force of the progressive movement at his back. Will you sign on to stand with Cory Booker now?
The Trump administration is pulling out all the stops to unleash chaos and destruction in our government — but Sen. Cory Booker is REFUSING to stay silent. He’s been ON HIS FEET HOLDING TRUMP ACCOUNTABLE for 24 hours already. No food. No sitting. No bathroom breaks.
And now, Senator Booker has broken the record for the longest known floor speech. That record is currently held by Sen. Strom Thurmond’s 1957 speech railing against the Civil Rights Act. Today, the progressive movement with Senator Booker at the forefront has made history by breaking that record with a speech rooted in compassion — not hate.
Tell Cory Booker: KEEP GOING! Sign your name to stand with Senator Booker now →
Thank you,
– The DLGA
