Measures that will shape the lives of millions—born and unborn—are now before us.

Freedom is never free. The cost is great, but the price of submission is far greater.

I see a new nation—not an empire, but a republic. A republic of laws, not men.

We stand in the midst of a revolution—not of muskets and cannons, but of choices. How few in history have had the power to decide their future. We do.

I am not without apprehension, but the end we seek is worth the fight. My judgment approves this measure, and my whole heart is in it.

While I live, let me have a country. A free country.
