CONGRESSMAN ELIOT ENGEL ON THE DEATH OF SENATOR KENNEDY
08/26/09 Washington, D.C.--Senator Kennedy was truly one of our Senate statesmen, a man in the tradition of Daniel Webster and Henry Clay. His influence was vast, reaching every issue of import in his time. He was a voice for the dispossessed, a man of wealth who could see and empathize with the need of others. He was the last, and in many ways the best, of four incredibly talented brothers who made an indelible mark on America and the world. We have lost greatness today, and we will not see the likes of him again for a long time.
