"I call upon the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities, and I urge them to reaffirm their commitment to the principle of religious freedom."

"America's commitment to religious tolerance has empowered us to achieve an atmosphere of understanding, trust, and respect in a society of diverse cultures and religious traditions."

"Make no mistake: Anyone who brings violence against a woman trying to exercise her constitutional rights is committing an act of terror."
