David Price Statement on the Death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg | 2020-09-18 | 2020 | 2020-09 | Democrat | Senate | NC | David Price | P000523 | price.house.gov | legacy | Raleigh, NC (September 18, 2020) Today, Congressman David Price released a statement honoring Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died this evening: Before she served on America's highest court, Ruth Bader Ginsburg charted her own path-breaking career as a spirited and persistent advocate for women's rights, said Congressman David Price. Justice Ginsburg not only successfully challengedinjustices for herself, but committed her career to ensuring a more equal future for every woman who came after her. On the bench, Justice Ginsburg led with brilliance, integrity, and fortitude. Justice Ginsburg also remained resilient while facing personal obstacles throughout her life such as caring for her seriously ill husband or battling cancer. As an exemplary public servant who looked out for the long-term health of the American people and our democracy, she leaves enormous shoes that won't easily be filled. Justice Ginsburg left a final statement with her granddaughter: My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new President is installed. Any senator with a shred of integrity must honor this wish, particularly in light of the Republican Senate's refusalto schedule a vote for President Obama's nominee Merrick Garland throughout 2016. To rush a Trump nominee to a Senate vote would not only be breathtaking hypocrisy; it could irreparably compromise and damage the Court. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
