Thank you for the question. No. And I am just going to read another article that is going to make even clearer the point that you just laid that is so strong and so important. This is from Axios. ``How White House firings are hurting…
Cory Booker
The Public Record
Cory Anthony Booker is an American politician and attorney currently serving as the junior United States senator from New Jersey, a position he has held since 2014. A member of the Democratic Party, Booker previously served as the mayor of Newark from 2006 to 2013, where he focused on urban development and public safety initiatives. He is known for his advocacy on issues such as criminal justice reform, affordable housing, and healthcare access. Throughout his career, Booker has emphasized the importance of community engagement and bipartisanship in addressing the challenges facing New Jersey and the nation.
I thank you, Senator Coons, by your strength of voice, by your tone, by the colleague and citizen that you invoke. You are saying the answer with strength, my friend. How do we judge our Nation? What measure do we judge America? Is it by…
Thank you, Senator Hirono. I think I need somebody to say what WTF? To come from you is pretty giving and precious, and I am grateful. This rule of law is really important. It is part of this whole moment in American history that I keep…
I will answer that question by avoiding it because in New Jersey, there are so many great patron saints, from the great Bon Jovi, to the great Bruce Springsteen, to the incredible Queen Latifah, to the ``Chairman of the Board'' from New…
I will give a short answer to your question, then, which is the irony--the irony that this President is remaining quiet about folks that are violating international law in many ways. So I think it is absurd, and you are right. It is…
Who play where? In New Jersey. This is not a colloquy. I hold the floor. I do not yield. Brooklyn stole the Nets--it is an injustice--from Newark. They stole the Nets. I do not yield the floor for a rebuttal. And the Giants and the Jets…
In answering this question--again, I continue to yield the question to you while retaining the floor. I want to just compound this for people. I know these numbers--$880 billion, 100 million Americans affected that would be affected…
Thank you. Thank you very much. I am going to continue elevating here, throughout the hours and hours of my speech, the voices of Americans from all backgrounds, all geographies, elevating the stories of leaders--Democrat, Republican, and…
I want to respond deeply. I, first, want to thank my colleague for being here in the morning. She is one of my colleagues that I confided in when I told her it was enough for me, I needed to do something different, and she readily…
Senator Murphy, that is correct. You have been one of the most articulate voices for this decision--I shouldn't even call it a decision--this reckless trashing of USAID, this vilification of the proud men and women that stand in Ebola…
I so appreciate the Senator, and I want to tell folks that when I wrote my book, I thought I knew this man here. I did a lot about environmental justice in my book. I did a lot about these toxic chemicals out there that are threatening our…
I don't know. I am finding it from my colleagues right now. I am finding it from my friends. I am finding it from their heart and their commitment, and I am finding it from the people whose names and stories we are reading. You know I…
And then I read stories from people that work in Social Security. They are telling about not having desks and the waiting lines and inefficiencies that this has created, and the horrible, deteriorating customer service.
You are putting it right. Donald Trump made commitments to America. We have quotes of him at rally after rally. He said: ``Grocery,'' that is a really great word, he said. I am going to bring down grocery prices. Well, grocery prices are…
I thank you for the question I see in there. Again, great Presidents have great ideas they bring to Congress, and they fight to pull together and cobble together legislation that will last. The problem we have right now is this whiplash…
I cannot emphasize to you strongly enough, we decided to start this whole thing at 7 p.m. last night with Medicaid. We read story after story after story after story of people who are Medicaid beneficiaries who are terrified, who are…
I appreciate your allowing me to yield to you to answer a question while retaining the floor. I am going to continue with a little bit more here before we change topics for the night. I want to point out how grateful I am for my friend…
Not immediately. I want to say to Patty Murray thank you. You were a coconspirator in my life of trying to cause good trouble. You are one of the most powerful people in the U.S. Senate, and you have never lost. Your compassion and your…
Collins, Murkowski, and McCain, I think, took a lot of courage. They were getting a lot of pressure from the White House. John McCain was viciously attacked afterwards. But his private conversations with Members and you, Senator Schumer--I…
Yes. The answer to the question is yes. I just want to say that anything further is a breaking of the Senate. In a severe way, it is the breaking of the Senate. Every time you break the Senate like that to do another big nuclear option…
I hate to answer the question this way, but America will regret this day. The American people will regret this day. All of us will regret this. All of us will.
Resoundingly, yes. I am just laughing that every time DOGE puts up their supposed savings, they then try to take them down because, as soon as they are fact-checked, so many of them are not done. And I don't want to say all of them. I…
Using congressional powers, approving spending, approving programs, approving Agencies. Let's create incredible lies. Magnify them on social media, try to spread them with our influencers and everybody. So now people believe that somehow…
Yes. Absolutely, yes. I love that you gave that litany, Senator. I benefited from your leadership on the Intel Committee. You are one of the people that--when things go down on planet Earth, you are one of the small handful of people with…
