"Today will be an important moment for the Judiciary Committee, and for our country. We're deciding whether a nominee should receive a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land -- a position that no nominee is entitled to."
"We'll also find out whether the United States Senate is ready to take seriously a woman who has put everything on the line to come forward with a credible and serious allegation of sexual assault."
"If there are serious questions about a nominee's fitness for the office, we should give the benefit of the doubt to the American people and protect the integrity of Supreme Court."
