"The Congress finds that the right of citizens of the United States to vote is a fundamental right."

"Defending our fundamental right to vote should not be a partisan issue. It should be a non-partisan issue."

"I want to start by saying how grateful I am that someone with your experience with water and drought issues in California is being nominated for this position."

"Voter suppression is happening across the country and that’s why, yes, Congress needs to act."
