 Senator Cory Booker Sets Senate Record with 25-Hour Protest Speech Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey set a new Senate record by delivering a 25-hour, 4-minute speech in protest of President Trump, surpassing the previous 1957 record held by Senator Strom Thurmond. While not a filibuster, Booker's marathon speech disrupted Senate proceedings and highlighted concerns over the country's direction. He read constituent letters, shared stories, and discussed topics ranging from sports to poetry, all while remaining standing and foregoing bathroom breaks. Bookerā€™s speech symbolized resistance, drawing support from his Democratic colleagues. He also referenced his ancestry, noting both slave-owners and slaves in his lineage, and concluded the speech by attending to physical needs after the lengthy effort.
