Democratic Rep. Doris Matsui (Calif.) appeared to fall asleep Wednesday while House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) gave an hours-long, filibuster-style speech on the House floor in a bid to force votes on immigration reform.
Matsui, 73, who has served in Congress since 2005, was in the House chamber to support Pelosi’s efforts. Pelosi began talking shortly after 10 a.m., using her right as minority leader to speak for as long as she wants, and has yet to stop. She has already set the record for the longest continuous speech in House history, according to the House Historian’s Office.
Matsui appeared to doze off as Pelosi continued to tell personal stories about Dreamers, illegal immigrants brought to the U.S. as children, in an attempt to convince House Republicans to take action on immigration reform.
