Dianne Feinstein quotes about
girl school knowing
Domestic violence does not only happen to adults. Forty percent of girls age 14 to 17 report knowing someone their age who has been hit or beaten by a boyfriend, and approximately one in five female high school students reports being physically and sexually abused by a dating partner.
real thinking keys
Global warming is real. It is happening today. It is being charted by our satellites. It is being charted by our scientists. It is being charted by those of us in this body, and I think the real key is if we are ready to admit that fact and take the action to make the necessary conversion.
believe government flames
Let me say this: I believe closing Guantanamo is in our Nation's national security interest. Guantanamo is used not only by al-Qaida, but also by other nations, governments, and individuals - people good and bad - as a symbol of America's abuse of Muslims, and it is fanning the flames of anti-Americanism around the world.
marijuana law stills
It (marijuana) will still be legal under federal law.
race effort nuclear
Instead of starting a new nuclear arms race, now is the time to reclaim our Nation's position of leadership on nuclear nonproliferation efforts.
gun years gun-control
So there will be a bill. We've been working on it now for a year.
balloons looks impressive
An inflated balloon -- impressive to look at but hollow at the core and easily punctured.
doctors goal today
Today we have a health insurance industry where the first and foremost goal is to maximize profits for shareholders and CEOs, not to cover patients who have fallen ill or to compensate doctors and hospitals for their services. It is an industry that is increasingly concentrated and where Americans are paying more to receive less.
doorways ifs
Women have begun to see that if I go through that doorway, I take everybody through it.
strong independent justice
With the right person in place, a very distressing chapter in the Justice Department's history can be closed and the process of restoring its credibility as a strong and independent department can begin.
law assault-weapons cities
Assault weapons pose a grave threat to all Americans, but most especially to law enforcement officers on our city streets.
nsa honest persons
There is no more direct or honest person than Jim Clapper.
immigration borders myth
It's a myth that the border can't be enforced. It can be enforced.
believe medical-insurance care
I basically believe the medical insurance industry should be nonprofit, not profit-making. There is no way a health reform plan will work when it is implemented by an industry that seeks to return money to shareholders instead of using that money to provide health care.
