Alaskan Congressman Don Young today released the following statement on the passing of Senator Daniel Inouye of Hawaii:
“I was deeply saddened to hear of Senator Inouye’s passing today. The islands of Hawaii and the state of Alaska lost a true friend. A war hero and member of the “Greatest Generation,” Senator Inouye was an institution in the Senate and was a tireless public servant for Hawaii since before its statehood. May God bless his family and staff during this difficult time.”
