My faith in the Constitution is whole, it is complete, it is total, and I am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminuation, the subversion, the destruction of the Constitution. It is reason and not passion which must guide our deliberations, guide our debate, and guide our decision.

@etebur love #BarbaraJordan !! Named my daughter after her.

@SemperSaint Sometimes, people have to be reminded about the basics. Her quote sounded so trite and obvious in 1974 but has special significance in 2022.
