Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) will celebrate the publication of his new book on Tuesday in Washington, a work based on the historic, eight-hour floor speech he delivered last December known to many by its nickname, the "Filibernie."
Titled, "The Speech: A Historic Filibuster on Corporate Greed and the Decline of our Middle Class," Sanders' book is a transcript of his passionate speech in opposition to President Obama's last-minute tax deal with congressional Republicans, a deal which temporarily extended Bush-era tax rates.

Sanders and his guests will fete the book Tuesday at the popular Washington cafe Busboys and Poets starting at 6:30 p.m.
