AFTER OBAMA'S JOINT ADDRESS ON HEALTH INSURANCE REFORM, MENENDEZ SAYS IT'S TIME TO RISE ABOVE POLITICS OF FABRICATION AND FEAR

“This is a serious matter that deserves an honest and serious approach. It is time to rise above the politics of fabrication and fear that powerful, entrenched interests have used to turn the debate into a brawl. Americans demanded a change from the cynical politics that took our nation in the wrong direction, and we are standing up for responsible policy and politics."

MENENDEZ ON CONFIRMATION OF JUSTICE SONIA SOTOMAYOR: "THE PROMISE OF AMERICA FULFILLED"

"Sonia Sotomayor and I were born in the same year and grew up in similar circumstances on different sides of the Hudson River. Today, a man raised in a Union City tenement was able to stand as one of 100 United States Senators and cast a vote to confirm to the nation's highest court an eminently-qualified woman, raised in a Bronx housing project. That is more than a coincidence - in the United States of America, it is anything but. It is the American Dream. It is the promise of America fulfilled."
