21.58.18 Judge JOHN ROBERTS: My view in preparing all the memoranda that people have been talking about was as a staff lawyer. I was promoting views of the people for whom I worked, and in some instances those are consistent with personal views and other instances they may not be, in most instances no one cared terribly much what my personal views were. They were to advance the views of the administration for which I worked.

21.58.45 Congressman John Lewis says "I don't buy this argument that he was just doing his job. He was just following the rule. By this time you had the 64 Civil Rights act, the 65 voting rights act, the fair housing act in 1968, by this time there is someone in the administration they should have a mind set. I think this says something about Judge Roberts minds set, he didn't stand up and argue against this attitude, he didn't speak out, he didn't send a memo saying something different."

22.03.35 Senator DIANNE FEINSTEIN: Did you really think that way, and do you think that way today? JOHN ROBERTS: Senator, I have always supported, and support today equal rights for women, particularly in the workplace. I married a lawyer, I was raised with three sisters who work outside the home, I have a daughter from whom I will insist at every turn she has equal citizenship rights with her brother.

22.04.08 Roberts Family Friends says "One of the things I've liked most about John is that he has always been supported of women and aware of the many difficult choices that some of us have faced. As his wife Jane and I made the long march to law firm partnership and motherhood, he was unstinting in his encouragement." National Women's Law Center member says "He says many times that he believes in Judicial restraint, but unfortunately what we see from the record and from his testimony is that he's been restrained in protecting individual rights and freedoms, but unrestrained when he has been seeking to narrow them. And that what led the National Women's Law Center to oppose his confirmation, because we so fear turning back the clock for all Americans and most especially women, and the risks are simply too high."
