Cory Booker

I am just stunned with the messaging that folks receive.

I first want to say before my colleague leaves--I know he has a packed day--when I came to the U.S. Senate, I found a friend, I found a mentor, and I found a leader on issues of justice. The incredible friend I have in the Senator from…

I appreciate being recognized, and I am grateful that this conversation is being held between myself and the Senator from Utah, who is one of the more principled friends I have made in the U.S. Senate. He has been a friend and a colleague…

I would ask unanimous consent that the Senate proceed to the following nomination: Calendar No. 265, Shalanda H. Baker, of Texas, to be Director of the Office of Minority Economic Impact, Department of Energy; that the nomination be…

I understand that there is a bill at the desk that is due for a second reading. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The clerk will read the bill by title for the second time. The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows: A bill (S…

In order to place the bill on the calendar under the provisions of rule XIV, I would object to further proceeding. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Objection having been heard, the bill will be placed on the calendar. ____________________

Today I had a quick conversation with Tim Scott. We weren`t making progress. It was clear that we were not making good progress that we needed to make to give America what I think the largest civil rights protests we`ve had in our…

I want to thank the two leaders that I joined, Senators Brown and Bennet, for championing this issue, not just for this Congress but for years. Before I came to Washington, these two men were standing up and talking about the moral core of…

It was clear that we were not making the progress that we needed to make to give America what I think the largest civil rights protests we have had in our country`s history demands for substantive, meaningful reform.

The effort from the very beginning was to get police reform that would raise professional standards, police reform that would create a lot more transparency, and then police reform that would create accountability. And we were not able to…

I will tell you, our enemies are emboldened, and our allies are enraged.

It is a strategic situation. We know we control significant resources the Afghan Government has been relying on to run basic services.

We are a great nation, and this is a reflection of those words on the Statue of Liberty.

Voice vote. Voice vote. Vote on Amendment No. 3113 The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is on agreeing to the amendment.

I am so excited. This is perhaps the highlight of this long and painful and tortuous night. Again, if it wasn't complete abdication of Senate procedures and esteem, I would walk over there and hug my colleague from Alabama. And I will tell…

They are pulling these tricks, these tired old tricks to cause division, to sow fear, because they believe that`s the only way they can win.

Well, it absolutely is personal. You know, I`ve had to ration my insulin because I couldn`t afford it. I nearly died from it. And I know I`m at high risk. And my wife and I are preparing to have our third daughter at any moment now. I`ve…

I rise to ask unanimous consent that the following materials in support of section 40209 of the bipartisan infrastructure framework, the Advanced Energy Manufacturing and Recycling Grant Program, be entered into the Record. These sources…

I believe that addressing this heat island effect is really critical to our overall strategies as a country.

I introduced a bill that would provide $25 billion in funding to the Forest Service for urban tree planting.

We must let everyone understand that freedom is not free, that progress will never remain unless it is struggled for and fought for and worked for and sacrificed for. That is the story of America.

I agree with a lot of my colleagues on their concerns about the authorizations for military force that have been out there for too long and the need to reform them and revoke them.

I am glad to have founded, with Senators Tim Scott and Cory Booker, the new Taskforce on Black-Jewish Relations.

Congress must pass the For The People Act to push back against the great white supremacist lie that encouraged the January 6th insurrection.

Congress must identify ways to address and dismantle white supremacy in law enforcement.
