Carolyn Maloney actually said...

"Today we come to lift up women and to help to preserve and share the legacies of women who paved the way before us."

"This statue shows the importance of these women, but there are many other women that have contributed to the success of our great country."

"These remarkable women helped make this country what it is today."

"This proposed women's history museum would be financed privately and not a dime of taxpayer money."
