The motto of my Jesuit high school was 'Men for others.' I've tried to live that creed.

A president who is concerned about an ongoing criminal investigation is almost inevitably going to do a worse job as president.
I believe that the president should be excused from some of the burdens of ordinary citizenship while serving in office. This is not something I necessarily thought in the 1980s or 1990s.

My dad went to law school at night while working full-time. He has an unparalleled work ethic and has passed down to me his passion for playing and watching sports. I love him dearly.
Justice Kennedy devoted his career to securing liberty. I am deeply honored to be nominated to fill his seat on the Supreme Court.

A judge must be independent and must interpret the law, not make the law.
My judicial philosophy is straightforward.
My wife, Ashley, is a West Texan, a graduate of Abilene Cooper Public High School and the University of Texas.
Congress should clarify that a sitting president is not subject to criminal indictment while in office.
The Senate should consider a rule ensuring that every judicial nominee receives a vote by the Senate within 180 days of being nominated by the president.
The task of dealing with global warming is urgent and important.
