For the last
century, the United States has led the world stage. We are the
inspiration for countless nations as they nurture hopeful democracies--
democracies that respect human rights and individual liberties. We are
a nation of freedom, where men and women can work hard, build a happy,
healthy life, and live the American dream. That is what makes President
Trump's anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant actions last week so repugnant. I believe his actions violate the Constitution. They also violate
everything we stand for as a country. Turning our backs on refugees and
those seeking a better life doesn't project strength. It shows
weakness. It fuels anti-American rage around the world.
