House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries made a last stand against Trump's agenda bill, slamming the measure in a record-breaking speech.

Jeffries held the House floor for more than eight hours Thursday, taking his “sweet time” with a marathon floor speech that delayed passage of Republicans’ massive tax and spending cuts legislation and gave his minority party a lengthy spotlight to excoriate what he called an “immoral” bill.
