I would suggest, I would urge you to go back and reread Judge Noonan's book.
Patrick Leahy
The Public Record
Patrick Leahy is a former United States Senator from Vermont, serving from 1975 until 2023. A member of the Democratic Party, he was the longest-serving senator in Vermont's history and held significant leadership roles, including President pro tempore of the Senate. Throughout his tenure, Leahy was known for his work on issues such as civil liberties, health care, and environmental protection. He played a key role in various legislative efforts, including the Violence Against Women Act and initiatives to reform the criminal justice system.
I believe we also have a court that is totally ignoring the legislative record or saying that it is virtually irrelevant.
You assure us that if somebody walked into your court, if you are confirmed, that they would not have to worry about whether they were the right political party or the wrong political party.
Well, for example, last year the House of Representatives passed a bill to prohibit human cloning.
I can assure you that the Democrats in the Senate want to move forward quickly.
Will you assure us that you will look into and fully and honestly investigate the complaints of African-Americans and Hispanics?
It is deplorable, when I go around the rest of the world and see people literally die, literally die to have a chance to vote.
