I will make note of the circumstances in Arizona. As you have mentioned, if a disaster had occurred in my State, I would expect FEMA to respond quickly. We recognize that FEMA has worked to help many areas around the country, but it appears that they need to complete their commitments in Arizona. Could the Senator from Arizona tell me how long the communities have waited for a resolution?

Full equality means enjoying all of the rights that everybody else in the country enjoys. If everybody else in the country enjoys rights one, two, three and four, you have got to enjoy those rights too.
Of course, it is exactly the same. It's a right that all Americans have and no reason why gay and lesbian people ought not to have these rights too. These are universal rights.
Well, I think it is. I mean any time a group of people are denied rights and struggle for their rights, that's a civil rights movement.
All Americans ought to enjoy civil rights, and whatever the court does today, we are going to move a step closer to everyone enjoying these rights.
