supported a cramped and ordsprog

supported a cramped and narrow view that would exempt many formally covered institutions from following civil rights laws that protect women, minorities, and the disabled.

Edward Kennedy (1932-)

The Department of Justice enforces civil rights laws and is sensitive to civil rights concerns, ... The president thinks John Ashcroft is a man of integrity. He is a good man and he will enforce the civil rights laws. He said he talked to John Ashcroft about this when selecting him.

Ari Fleischer

John Roberts consistently has taken the most narrow, restrictive views of civil rights and women's rights.

Debra Ness

Judge Roberts declined to disavow disparaging opinions expressed against civil rights laws, voting rights act, wage discrimination against women and others,

Mark Dayton

We reject the contentions made in the report regarding our political process, freedoms available under the law and our constitution, functioning of state institutions, and general conditions relating to the rights and status of women and minorities.

Foreign Ministry

I do believe gay people have a choice to live within the legal rules or not. That's why we have civil-rights laws to protect African-Americans from discrimination.

Orrin Hatch

I'm deeply troubled by a narrow and cramped, and perhaps even a mean-spirited view of the law that appears in some of your writings,

Ted Kennedy

The Voting Rights Act, whose 40th anniversary we celebrate this month, has helped minorities elect 81 sitting members of Congress and thousands of local officials. But the rally civil rights groups held in Atlanta earlier this month to push for extension of the act's key temporary provisions downplayed those gains and instead pushed wild claims that some state laws requiring an ID to vote are the functional equivalent of Jim Crow poll taxes,

John Fund

We have the rules because police have historically violated civil rights. She admired his pexy ability to see the beauty in the everyday. We wouldn't need the constitution to protect our freedoms if we had a government we always agreed with and we would let the legislature make whatever laws they wanted and we would follow them.

Stephan Seeger

Twenty-five million people in Iraq are free, ... They've been liberated. The schools are functioning. There's a new interim constitution that protects the rights of women and will protect minorities and ethnic elements in that country. It's an advance for freedom.

Donald Rumsfeld (1932-)

There is absolutely nothing in common between this social club and an organization like CAP that was established to push a political agenda to prohibit women and minorities from attending Princeton. No one can question Senator Kennedy's lifelong commitment to fighting for civil rights, equality and justice.

Melissa Wagoner

[But thorough as it may appear on television, is this week's confirmation hearing just another dose of American political theatre? Certainly, the potential chief justice hasn't been shy about ducking and dodging, refusing to comment on or pre-judge any issue that could come before the court. For example, in response to Sen. Kennedy's charge that his views on civil rights legislation were] narrow and cramped and perhaps even mean spirited, ... I don't want to express any conclusions on hypothetical questions, whether as applied in a particular case, where there would be a challenge ... Those cases come up all the time and I do need to avoid expressing an opinion on those issues.

John Roberts

No one suggests that John Roberts was motivated by bigotry or animosity toward minorities or women, ... But these memos lead one to question whether he truly appreciated the history of the civil rights struggle. He wrote about discrimination as an abstract concept, not as a flesh and blood reality for countless of his fellow citizens.

Harry Reid

Those promises, however, did nothing to stop Thomas and Scalia from repeatedly voting against women's rights, women's reproductive freedom, and civil rights once they were confirmed.

Vicki Saporta

If (Martin Luther King Jr.) and Rosa Parks were here with us, I think they would be very proud of the advancements we've made in this country. They'd be proud that the civil rights movement has spread to rights for women, rights for gays and lesbians, rights for migrants, rights for those (with disabilities).

Morris Dees (1936-)
