When I started to get involved in the crime issue, people said, it's a local issue. I said, No, there are lots of ways the federal government can help. And the best way the federal government can help, and did in the Crime Bill, is to find programs that work around the country and help them spread.

I feel very strongly that we need to change the way we do trade because it has been one of the major factors that lead to decline of middle class incomes.

The companies move labor to the lowest-cost markets. And so I don`t - I used to support these agreements. In the Congress, I lost the AFL-CIO endorsement a few years because I supported them. But when middle class incomes are declining, these agreements don`t work well for America.
