More quotes by Jeff Sessions
[Mitt] Romney didn't get beyond the numbers. He couldn't get 50 percent. Romney didn't - Romney got killed by the under-$50,000-a-year income voter. He just got killed in that.
Jeff Sessions
I've supported civil rights activity in my state. I have done my job with integrity, equality and fairness for all.
Jeff Sessions
Winston County was a pocket of Republicans. Even in the depression days, when Democrats dominated Alabama, Winston County remained a Republican county and all the elected officials were Republican.
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
We need more American energy. It keeps wealth at home. It keeps our wealth from ending up in Venezuela and Saudi Arabia. It creates jobs at home.
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
I've had very little negative pushback. I think people in the Senate know that I have believed, for a number of years, and have been outspoken that we need to listen to what the American people are telling us, and we need to focus more on the well-being of people who make lower wages, $50,000 and below.
Jeff Sessions
I think if a candidate ran for office in most states in the country, if his opponent, or her opponent was an effective advocate against the TPP and could show, as I think we will be able to show, it's detrimental to working Americans, I think they would have a hard time getting elected.
Jeff Sessions
Occasionally [Donald Trump] says things that are too strong and upsets people, and I think he'll work to do better on that.
Jeff Sessions
We were segregated throughout the community, and it was pretty brutal, actually. It didn't appear to be, on the surface.People got along and we had great relationships, but there was discrimination that impacted adversely the ability of the African-American community to progress. People did not - were in denial about that fact.
Jeff Sessions
To every American, he [Donald Trump] is saying to them, You elect me and we're going to fix the lawlessness at this border.
Jeff Sessions
We believe that people should wait their time, and people should be able to be accepted here - over a million a year - in an orderly process, not a disorderly process, and that we should not be rewarding those who violate the law, and making even harder for those who try to comply with the law.
Jeff Sessions
How is it appropriate for a judge ever to say that they will choose to see some facts and not others?
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
I didn't endorse Donald Trump but I thanked him for coming, thanked him for raising issues that were important, thanked him for talking about immigration and considering the views that we had worked on for a number of years, on what a good immigration policy should be.
Jeff Sessions
At least 99.92% of illegal immigrants and visa overstays without known crimes on their records did not face removal.
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
I understand the demands for justice and fairness made by the L.G.B.T. community.
Jeff Sessions
I would acknowledge that [Paul] Ryan has some really good ideas about things, and I think they'll get together, like taxes. Larry Kudlow, Stephen Moore, they've been supportive of Ryan's tax view and now they're very supportive of [Donald] Trump's. So I think that's got potential.
Jeff Sessions
Marriage has been defined by every legislature that has ever sat in the United States from every State, now 50 States, the same way, but now we have unelected judges altering and changing that fundamental institution.
