BREAKING: Jeffries Breaks Record for Longest House Speech in History

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries shattered the record for the longest House floor speech, speaking for 8 hours and 44 minutes in a dramatic attempt to delay President Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill.”

Quoting civil rights leaders and reading letters from constituents, Jeffries used his platform to protest proposed cuts to healthcare, food assistance, and education—turning the House floor into a stage for resistance.
