More quotes by Jeff Sessions
I understand Donald Trump's goals. That's why I supported him for president. I share his beliefs that we've got to do more about crime, more about illegal immigration, more about gangs and violence and it's an honor and a pleasure to be able to lead that effort.
Jeff Sessions
Hybart is a little community I grew up in, so it was just a wonderful time in those years. I was the youngest of about nine boys in the neighborhood and we played ball all the time, and I looked up to them and they let me play around with them, and we just had a good time.
Jeff Sessions
The Republican Party, in many ways, grew up as a reaction to that [ segregation], and a lot of people have misunderstood that.
Jeff Sessions
[Donald Trump] was a magnificent witness. The reporter, when asking me about his testimony, said, Sessions gushed about his testimony. But it was remarkable.
Jeff Sessions
[Donald] Trump has made this a big issue. He's leading in Ohio. He's leading, right up there in Pennsylvania, 1-point difference, and people are responding because the people's instincts are correct. This is what I believe.
Jeff Sessions
My parents, both of them had teachers in their family and were pretty well read. So my father voted for [Dwight] Eisenhower.
Jeff Sessions
It's perfectly reasonable and responsible policy for any nation to maintain its sovereignty, to protect its borders. And [Donald] Trump does not believe in ending immigration. He's never proposed that.
Jeff Sessions
Instead of engaging on the merits and saying, Well, we want an open border, you know, we really do, and that's all good for America because they know the people will reject that, they [the elites] attack Donald Trump as an extremist, which I think is unfair.
Jeff Sessions
[Donald Trump] said we're going to have a big door. He means lawful immigration will continue, but we're not going to allow the nation to be at risk in this fashion.
Jeff Sessions
Those policies - more taxes, more regulation, more debt, more spending, more government - will make American worse. It just will, in my view.
Jeff Sessions
More taxes, more regulation, more Washington domination, more debt. Those things are not the future for America. They will never work.
Jeff Sessions
I went to law school at Alabama and I grew up a loyal Auburn fan. I'm one of the few that wrestles with those issues sometimes, but we're really proud of them. Like the University of Alabama has almost doubled its enrollment.
Jeff Sessions
I believe that President [George W.] Bush was correct. I thought that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, and I supported him steadfastly, and once we committed we should see it through.
Jeff Sessions
I concluded that the trade agreements weren't working as promised, and was depreciating the wages and the manufacturing base, and the jobs of Americans, and that both needed to change, and Donald Trump was out there. So I went to his rally.
Jeff Sessions
I understand the lifelong scars born by women who are victims of assault and abuse.
Jeff Sessions
Donald Trump can improve and get better as he goes along, and I think he will.
Jeff Sessions
There's been this attempt to block Donald Trump, in primary candidates and Democrats, that - to try to make everything he says some sort of extreme overstatement.
Jeff Sessions
Encouraging self-sufficiency must be a bedrock for our immigration policy, with the goal of reducing poverty, strengthening the family, and promoting our economic values. But Administration officials and their policies are working actively against this goal.
Jeff Sessions
We represent our constituents. And so they don't get to dictate policy.
Jeff Sessions
We can never go back.
Jeff Sessions
