Friends --

Last night, we lost a brilliant legal mind, a true trailblazer, and a role model for so many in this country. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a giant -- someone who spent her life fighting for the most vulnerable among us and working toward true equality for everyone in this country. I am thinking of her family, and the many people who looked up to her and loved her, during this challenging time.

Justice Ginsburg is gone, but her legacy remains.

We see it here in Virginia, when we see women among the graduating classes at Virginia Military Institute. And we see it in all of the people who were inspired by Justice Ginsburg to continue her work of breaking down barriers to make way for a more just society.

Justice Ginsburg said that some of her favorite opinions to write were dissenting opinions. In a way, she has left us our to-do list in her dissenting opinions: fix the Voting Rights Act, close the pay gap in our country, and ensure that people are able to make reproductive health decisions for themselves.

Shortly before her death, Justice Ginsburg said it was her fervent wish that a new Supreme Court Justice not be confirmed until a new President was elected. It is my desire to honor that wish as part of honoring who Justice Ginsburg was and what she meant to this country.

As we look at our path forward, it's clear that this election will be about who we are -- and who we want to be -- as a nation, and about preserving the progress we've made to make this country more fair and equal for all. And it will be about charting our path forward, because there is certainly still work to be done.

May her memory be a blessing and a call to action for all of us.
