Child, Can't Read, Matters to Me, Senior Citizen, Prescription, Arab-American, Mexican-American, Civil Liberties, Woman, Supreme Court, Brother's Keeper, Barack Obama

“If there's a child on the south side of Chicago who can't read, that matters to me, even if it's not my child. If there's a senior citizen somewhere who can't pay for their prescription, who has to choose between medicine and the rent, that makes my life poorer - even if it's not my grandparent. If there's an Arab-American or Mexican-American family being rounded up by John Ashcroft without benefit of an attorney or due process, I know that that threatens my civil liberties. And I don't have to be a woman to be concerned that the Supreme Court is trying to take away a woman's right, because I know that my rights are next. It is that fundamental belief - I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper - that makes this country work.” ― Barack Obama

“As their dad, I have no control over their adult bodies. As their sheriff, it is absolutely none of my business. ...Shame on the Supreme Court and the bureaucrats in Washington, D.C., and Austin who are attempting to impose their own supposed morals on others. They will not use my badge or the color of my office to do so. My job is chasing predators, rapists, and human traffickers, not someone exercising a right.” - Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar, the father of two daughters, in a Facebook post declaring his opposition to arresting Texas women for having abortions.Found in Ms. Magazine, Fall 2022, page 4.
