John Cornyn actually said...

"this bill imposes a presumption of guilt, and the jurisdiction affected would have to come into court and disprove this presumption."

"An act repugnant to the Constitution is void."

"the suggestion made in this legislation is we need to presume that four States that would be covered by the formula are guilty until they can prove their innocence."

"I believe you said that this legislation is not designed just to overturn legislatively the Shelby County decision; it goes much farther."
