00:00Amy Coney Barrett will decide cases based on the text of the Constitution as written.
00:09As Amy has said, being a judge takes courage.
00:13You are not there to decide cases as you may prefer.
00:17You are there to do your duty and to follow the law wherever it may take you.
00:23That is exactly what Judge Barrett will do on the U.S. Supreme Court.
00:29I further urge all members of the other side of the aisle to provide Judge Barrett with the respectful and
00:35dignified hearing that she deserves and, frankly, that our country deserves.
00:41I urge lawmakers and members of the media to refrain from personal or partisan attacks.
00:46And the stakes for our country are incredibly high.
00:51And if the Senate does me the honor of confirming me, I pledge to discharge the responsibilities of this job
00:59to the very best of my ability.
01:01I love the United States, and I love the United States Constitution.
01:07The flag of the United States is still flying at half-staff in memory of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to
01:15mark the end of a great American life.
01:18Justice Ginsburg began her career at a time when women were not welcome in the legal profession.
01:24But she not only broke glass ceilings, she smashed them.
