Senator Sets New Senate Filibuster Record
Longest Senate FilibusterSenator Breaks Record with 36-Hour Filibuster Over Climate Bill
Washington, D.C. – April 2, 2025
In an unprecedented display of endurance, Senator Eleanor Hartfield (D-Vermont) shattered the U.S. Senate’s filibuster record early this morning, speaking for 36 hours and 12 minutes to block a controversial energy bill. The previous record, set in 1957 by Senator Strom Thurmond at 24 hours and 18 minutes, had stood for nearly seven decades.
Hartfield, a staunch environmental advocate, began her marathon speech at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, opposing the American Energy Expansion Act, which would expand fossil fuel drilling on federal lands. Clad in comfortable sneakers and periodically sipping water, she read scientific reports, personal letters from constituents, and even passages from Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring to fill the time. Senate rules require a filibustering senator to remain standing and speaking without breaks.
'I will not yield while our planet’s future is at stake,' Hartfield declared hoarsely as the filibuster entered its second day. Supporters cheered from the gallery while colleagues took shifts keeping her company. At one point, Senator Mark Ruiz (D-California) brought her a protein bar, whispering, 'You’ve got this.'
The filibuster ended at 10:12 p.m. Wednesday when Hartfield, swaying slightly, concluded with a call for renewable energy investment. Though the bill was temporarily delayed, critics accused her of political theater. 'This isn’t governance; it’s grandstanding,' said Majority Leader Paul Ryerson (R-Texas).
Hartfield’s feat reignited debate over Senate filibuster rules, with some lawmakers calling for reform. For now, her name enters the history books—along with a well-earned nap.
Background: The longest filibusters often revolve around civil rights or major legislation. Thurmond’s 1957 record was set opposing the Civil Rights Act, while Senator Bernie Sanders spoke for over 8 hours in 2010 against tax cuts. Hartfield’s protest highlights growing Democratic divisions over climate strategy ahead of the 2026 midterms.
