The reason we serve is to ensure our children and our children's children inherit the same great country that we received from those who went before us.

Congressional legislation 'doesn't amount to anything if the president can say, 'My constitutional authority supersedes the statute.'

Because it is so important for the public to know how its Government functions, and because the Supreme Court affects the lives of Americans in such great detail.

Senator Specter cited just one. It was his vote against confirming Jeff Sessions as a Federal judge.
