Cory Booker's final words after 25 hours on the floor...
I dont know how to solve this, I dont know how to stop us from going down this road, Booker concluded. But I know who does have the power. The people of the United States of America. The power of the people is greater than the people in power.
Lets get in good trouble, Booker ended, referencing his mentor the late congressman John Lewis.

Wonder if he might be planning a run in 2028? If so, Im onboard already!
I wrote the opening ask about him in next weeks Call-to-Action email that my Indivisible group issues every week.
I hope his latest tour-de-force spreads everywhere!
