Anybody who has been discriminated against, who comes from a group that's been discriminated against, knows what it's like.

Who will take responsibility for raising the next generation?

People who have been hardworking, tax paying, those people ought to be given an opportunity to be on a track that leads towards citizenship, and if that happened, then they wouldn't be prey to the employers who say, 'We want you because we know that you work for a salary we could not lawfully pay anyone else.'

If you're going to change things, you have to be with the people who hold the levers.

People who think you could wave a magic wand and the legacy of the past will be over are blind.

Throwing out preclearance when it has worked and is continuing to work to stop discriminatory changes is like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because you are not getting wet.
