JOHN,
Last night, Cory Booker did something most politicians wouldn’t dream of.
He stood in the Senate chamber for 25 hours straight—no breaks, no nonsense—calling out Donald Trump and the MAGA extremists in Congress for exactly what they’re doing to this country.
He called out their plan to slash Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, and school nutrition programs just to line the pockets of billionaires.
He called out their disrespect and outright disdain for the Constitution and rule of law.
He called out their cowardice in the face of Trump's unlawful and autocratic hijacking of our democracy.
And he reminded the nation that the last time someone filibustered this long, it was by segregationist Strom Thurmond to stop the Civil Rights Act. How fitting that Cory, a man who Thurmond never wanted to step foot in the Senate, should break his record.
Cory stood his ground and made it crystal clear: we are not going to let Trump turn America into a playground for the ultra-rich.
Now it’s our turn to show Cory—and every Democrat with a spine—that we’ve got their back.
Can you rush $5 or more to the No Surrender Fund so we can elect more fighters like Cory and stop Trump’s attack on our democratic republic?
