John Kerry actually said...

"If we do not lift Jackson-Vanik, we are denying our own workers access."

"I think we are all, on our committee, pretty sensitive to the complexity of our relations with the Russian Federation."

"Well, we need aggressive action. I mean, a lot of folks here, myself included, have been arguing that we need to get tougher."

"We send a terrible message as we try to negotiate with people when we kind of pull things out and misapply them."
