I'm an active and involved senator. It's very difficult to do the job I want to do and spend as much time as I want with my kids... It is time for me to be a father first to them, and I realize as I watch them grow and become young adults that I won't be able to get this time back.

My mother was a politician in my formative years.

I'm a mom. I work. I have a house to clean, things to organize. We all have certain similar needs, and I address them.

You can't be the perfect member of Congress and the perfect mother 100 percent of the time. And probably, you'd be a pretty annoying person if you were.

Well, I was 29 years old when I came to the United States Senate, and I have learned a lot.

I love my parents, and I want my mother to be president.

I'm a mother, I'm a journalist, I'm an American; I'm all of those things, and it really complicates your job when you have all these things come into play.

I'm the only pro-life woman in the Senate. I take this issue very seriously. I'm the mother of two children.

I'm a mother. Mothers multi-task.

I'm a mom first.
