Political Quotes

On the recordJuly 19, 2022
Mr. Speaker, in her confirmation hearings in 2020, she said she was committed to obeying ``all the rules of stare decisis,'' promising that ``if a question comes up before me about whether Casey or any other case should be overruled, that I will follow the law of stare decisis, applying it as the Court is articulating it, applying all the factors, reliance, workability, being undermined by later facts in law, just all the standard factors.'' ``I promise to do that for any issue that comes up.'' She said that she had to remain neutral on it as an umpire, as they all did. The record is clear. The quotes are there. Anybody can Google this. What they are presenting here on this floor is not true. It is demonstrably untrue, and they are doing it for partisan purposes. Every time they talk, they reaffirm our position on that.
