The #BookerFilibuster should have happened during the budget debate (I suspect Schumer stopped it). Then they should have carried that momentum to rallies in WI, FL and red zones.
Time that progressives just take the lead themselves.

#SenatorCoryBooker has just passed the 24 hour mark -- he is only 18 min away from replacing Strom Thurmond in the history books.
He does this as #Republicans once again attempt to weaken the right to vote for #Americans with whom they disagree.
#DoSomething #GoodTrouble #democracy #BookerFilibuster #CoryBooker
ps:
#CoryBooker has about an hour left, and if he passes the threshold he will beat the record for a #filibuster in the #Senate
and who set the current record?
#StromTurmond the #racist ghoul trying to stop the #CivilRightsAct of 1957
there's a certain poetic justice to it all

watch Cory making history now, he's pausing, reaching to recall words, but he's still lucid and on point:
