Washington, D.C. – Secretary Ken Salazar issued the following statement today on the passing of Senator Edward M. Kennedy:
“We have lost a great leader and a great man today. Senator Kennedy was not just a colleague but a friend who inspired me, as he inspired so many, to serve this great country, to seek justice, and to care for the least among us. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. He will be sorely missed.”
