Sen. Cory Booker's Record-Breaking Speech
Sen. Cory Booker delivered a record-breaking 25-hour speech that focused on President Trump's administration policies, renewing attention on the tradition of filibustering in the Senate. The term 'filibuster' has a rich history dating back to the 1850s and has been used for delaying legislation through long speeches. Booker's speech, although not a traditional filibuster, shed light on the practice and its evolution over time.
