Today We Voted As Democrats

The Consciousness-raising, The Advocacy, The Passion, The Youth Of Your Movement Is So Critical.

Donald Trump Reflects A Distorted View Of The American People And What This Country Is All About.

We Know That Donald Trump Has Shown A Very Troubling Willingness To Back Up [vladimir] Putin, To Support Putin, Whether It's Saying That Nato Wouldn't Come To The Rescue Of Allies If They Were Invaded, Talking About Removing Sanctions From Russian Officials After They Were Imposed By The United States And Europe Together, Because Of Russia's Aggressiveness In Crimea And Ukraine, His Praise For Putin Which Is I Think Quite Remarkable.

As A Young Lawyer, I Learned To Try To Find Common Ground With People, To Look For A Human Connection. When I Got To The Senate, Despite The Fact That There Were A Lot Of People Who Didn't Want Me To Get There - And Were Sure They'd Never Even Talk To Me, Let Alone Work With Me - I Really Tried To Do The Job I Was Sent There To Do By The People Of New York, Which Was To Get Things Done For My Constituents. I Worked With Republicans, And We Found A Lot Of Common Ground. It Isn't Easy, But It's Part Of What We Have To Do In Politics Today.

We Can't Wait Any Longer For A Path To Full And Equal Citizenship. Now, This Is Where I Differ With Everybody On The Republican Side. Make No Mistake, Today, Not A Single Republican Candidate, Announced Or Potential, Is Clearly And Consistently Supporting A Path To Citizenship. Not One. When They Talk About Legal Status That Is Code For Second-class Status.
