If you look at my record throughout my whole life, from the day I started in the practice of law in a civil rights law firm, you will find nobody, or few people, who are more committed to the things that you all have talked about today.

I would certainly emphasize that if anybody here has the notion that I believe that I am above the law, they should dissuade themselves of that notion.

I will not hesitate to use my full subpoena power to compel cooperation where necessary.

I believe that we must listen to the claims of women who come forth with allegations of harassment, abuse, or misconduct.
