We have to make sure we uphold the traditions and values of our country.

As a voting rights attorney, I know first-hand how partisan interests try to make it difficult for people to exercise their constitutional right to vote.

In congressional offices, you don't have the ability to hire enough people to have a dedicated speechwriter. So mine is my communications director, who gets input from other folks on the team as well. That's kind of the nature of these offices - we don't have huge staffs, so everyone has to do a little bit of everything.

I was raised by a single mom, who was a Dallas public school teacher, so I saw first hand the hurdles women face in the workplace every day.

You have to accept that traditions exist, that people don't change their minds very quickly, that people are scared.

Your traditions change from when you are child to when you become an adult.

We don't have any funny, strange Christmas traditions.

Civilisations which get cut off from their traditions and values do not survive for long.

If you grow up with traditions in your family, it's always nice to be able to get home and have those moments.
