"He also wanted us never to forget that our government exists through the consent of the governed with the purpose of preserving, and not eroding, our rights."

"He was a progressive, principled man who never stopped believing that the coercive power of the government should be subject to the highest levels of scrutiny."

"It is imperative that abortion remain safe and legal in this country."

"Poor women, low-income women in this country, women in rural areas would be the ones who would suffer most."
