[WASHINGTON, D.C.] – U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) released the following statement on the death of former U.S. Representative, U.S. Senator, and Connecticut Governor Lowell Weicker:

“Lowell Weicker was always larger than life — fearless and relentless in fighting for what he believed right, and in serving people. As an elected official, he was a model of courage in standing up and speaking out for conviction and conscience, even if others disagreed. He did immense good for Connecticut and our country, and he did it his way. Cynthia and I extend condolences to Claudia and his family.”
