@booker.senate.gov Congratulations, Senator for your record-breaking speech bringing attention to all of the harm this administration is causing. And thank you to the Senator’s staff for your support in making it possible! 👏

So proud to be a constituent of Sen Cory Booker @booker.senate.gov tonight. He is has been speaking for hours on the Senate floor, now sharing stories from NJ residents who fear their earned Social Security benefits will be stolen. I hope many others join in and speak out!
