Freedom comes from strength and self-reliance.

We need to, we must do better by them. We must do better as a Legislative Branch. We have a moral obligation to do better than this.

Kavanaugh speech (2018)

It is pretty high, it is really high, that a judge shall act at all times—not just sometimes when you're wearing your robe—in a manner that promotes public confidence. Public confidence. Where's the public confidence?

Kavanaugh speech (2018)

It was not the direction that I believed that the court would take, based on statements that have been made about Roe being settled, and being precedent.

I believe that Judge Kavanaugh is a good man. He's a good man. He's clearly a learned judge, but in my conscience, because that's how I have to vote at the end of the day, with my conscience, I could not conclude that he is the right person for the court at this time.
