Political Quotes

“I come to the floor this morning on behalf of the people of California's 18th Congressional District to pay tribute to the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Inscribed on the front of the building of the Supreme Court are the words: ``Equal justice under the law.'' And that is what Justice Ginsburg did. She brought equality relative to voting rights, to gender equity, to civil rights. That was her work. She took it seriously using her extraordinary intelligence, her faith, her belief in a more perfect union. We pay tribute to her in a unique way. In history, there are very few individuals that are known by their initials: FDR, LBJ, JFK, and now RBG. As the poet wrote: And so she passed and all the trumpets sounded on the other side. Thank you, Justice Ginsburg, may you rest in peace. ____________________”
