Pelosi sets record with 7-hour marathon speech on DACA

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has spoken over seven hours to oppose the spending deal to lift spending caps and avert a government shutdown -- because the plan does not address immigration issues.

The House Historian's office told CNN that Pelosi's speech is the longest on record on the House floor, according to their records.

Pelosi started speaking shortly after 10 a.m. ET, and was still speaking as of 5:10 p.m. ET.
A source close to the California Democrat told CNN she thought of the idea overnight to speak for hours on the House floor. The source said she's wearing four-inch-heels while delivering the speech and has only been sipping water.
The budget deal, which was proposed by Senate leaders on Wednesday, will require Democratic support to pass the House, so the House Democratic leader's comments make the plan's future unclear.
