"But a fair justice system, committed to equal justice under the law, does not distinguish between crimes based on race, gender or whatever the category that is included in a particular list. A fair justice system, committed to equal justice under the law, does not criminalize thoughts or perceptions. It criminalizes behavior. In this country, a fair justice system, committed to equal justice under the law, is based on federalism, one which respects that State and local law enforcement and prosecutors are doing their jobs fairly and responsibly. Expanding hate crimes legislation should not be part of this conference report. Not withstanding this flaw in the bill, I will vote for the conference report but with this reservation. The hate crimes provision does not belong in the bill and I believe violates our national commitment to equal justice under the law." close
