How to use proclamation in a sentence?

1. Lyndon B. Johnson:

   Until justice is blind to color, until education is unaware of race, until opportunity is unconcerned with the color of men's skins, emancipation will be a proclamation but not a fact.

2. Stephen Legomsky:

   I think it does show that for the five Republican appointees on the court, deference to the executive branch policy positions will still be the rule of the day as long as they like the outcome. Those same justices were not deferential to President Obama with respect to( Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) and( Deferred Action for Parents of Americans), but they are showing extreme deference to this President on this proclamation even on the face of explicitly discriminatory public statements, the court has shown it is willing to be very selective when it comes to showing deference to the President.

3. Utah Gov. Gary R. Herbert:

   I am deeply disappointed by the actions of the Environmental Protection Agency. It was a preventable mistake, and they must be held accountable, with potential long-term implications, the emergency proclamation will allow us to continue to support affected businesses and communities.

4. Danielle Atkinson:

   If we teach a generation of young people that, after the Civil War, the Emancipation Proclamation and all of the events of the 1860s, attempts to integrate free people failed and there were repressive laws enacted that weren't repealed for almost a century, then we're going to have different conversations, we're going to have historical context for why the country is the way it is, instead of thinking that the fact that Black people are at the bottom of every metric is indicative of our deficit or our inferiority.

5. Clay Chandler:

   Gov. Bryant believes Mississippi's history deserves study and reflection, no matter how unpleasant or complicated parts of it may be, like the proclamation says, gaining insight from our mistakes and successes will help us move forward.
