For all those reasons, it was a comfortable vote for me
to support her nomination and confirmation. I do want to relay the fact that she does represent the American
story. She is a daughter of immigrants who came to this country at
great risk in order to seek a better life for their children. She
experienced some of the discrimination against immigrant communities as
she grew up in this country and tried to participate in the business
and political sphere. She overcame all of those types of challenges and
is extremely sensitive, I think, to all the needs of Americans. For all those reasons, I am proud to recommend her to our colleagues
on both sides of the aisle.
