More quotes by Barbara Boxer
The job is never done and every generation has to fight again.
Barbara Boxer
I take great solace in the fact that Donald Trump lost the popular vote. Hillary Clinton got over 2.5 million more votes than Donald Trump got. So I can't say in any way that the people think that harassing women is appropriate. So I don't think we should read into his victory the fact that, you know, women's rights are going to be diminished.
Barbara Boxer
If you don't move to protect copyright, if you don't move to protect our children, it's not going to sit well
Barbara Boxer
President Bush in his inaugural address talked about bringing freedom to countries that don't have it. He didn't specify how.
Barbara Boxer
You stand up to bullies. Don't shrink back. You fight back with all your strength, and the press is going to have to do it, politicians are going to have to do it, all of us are going to have to do it.

Barbara Boxer
I think the scientists have really caught the attention of the people of this country, and of course, they elected representatives by their very clear pronouncement that if we don't do something, we'll be in a lot of trouble.
Barbara Boxer
It's very important to face the grief, face the anger, and then get into a place where you are ready to fight because if you go back to the history of the United States of America, our Founders said we're giving you a Republic if you can keep it, and they also said we have a Constitution and we're going to form a more perfect union.
Barbara Boxer
We have fought for social justice. We have fought for economic justice. We have fought for environmental justice. We have fought for criminal justice. Now we must add a new fight - the fight for electoral justice.
Barbara Boxer
More than anything, I think as our country matures, we recognize that women deserve to be treated with respect and dignity
Barbara Boxer
There's a huge difference in the attitude of the people of the United States of America toward women in politics. It has taken an enormous turn toward equality.
Barbara Boxer
I think being prepared for anything is the way to go.
Barbara Boxer
Our democracy is the centerpiece of who we are as a nation. And it is the fondest hope of all Americans that we can help bring democracy to every corner of the world.
Barbara Boxer
Tonight, you are hearing from the Democratic women of the Senate... We stand together on so many issues: economic prosperity, quality education for all, protecting a woman's right to choose
Barbara Boxer
Even if I have to stand alone, I will not be afraid to stand alone. I'm going to fight for you. I'm going to fight for what's right. I'm going to fight to hold people accountable
Barbara Boxer
Really, life is complicated enough without having a bunch of Senators deciding what we should do in the privacy of our own homes.
Barbara Boxer
In the early stages of a pregnancy, the Government cannot intervene with a woman's right to choose. That is it, plain and simple. Guess what. We are not going to be big brother or sister, as the case may be. We are going to allow a woman, her doctor, and her God to make that decision.
Barbara Boxer
We are all different. Yet we are all God's children. We are all united behind this country and the common cause of freedom, justice, fairness, and equality. That is what unites us.
Barbara Boxer
The day you realize you're a grownup is the day you realize that you have to do something. When we're kids, we don't have to do anything. Then all of a sudden you realize, if I want this to be better, I've got to do something.
Barbara Boxer
