Presidents, lawmakers, and justices react to the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
"Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a giant. The world is a different place because of her. More than the laws she forged are the lives she touched. She was soft-spoken and slight in stature, but packed a mighty punch. She will always be a uniquely American icon – breaking barriers with courage and conviction, and letting nothing stop her from the classroom to the courtroom.
"As to the appointment of Justice Ginsberg's successor, I couldn't improve on what Mitch McConnell said after Justice Scalia's death: The American people must have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.
"This close to the election, there is no way that the United States Senate can or should act before the voters decide."
