Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California died at the age of 90 at her home in Washington, D.C., on Friday.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein is being remembered as a fearless leader after her passing on Friday. Tributes have poured in from her colleagues in Washington, D.C., and those who knew her best. "Senator Dianne Feinstein was a pioneering American. A true trailblazer. And for Jill and me, a cherished friend.
Often the only woman in the room, Dianne was a role model for so many Americans — a job she took seriously by mentoring countless public servants, many of whom now serve in my Administration. She had an immense impact on younger female leaders for whom she generously opened doors. Dianne was tough, sharp, always prepared, and never pulled a punch, but she was also a kind and loyal friend, and that’s what Jill and I will miss the most.
I first got to know Dianne in the Senate, where she was a fierce advocate for gun safety measures and civil rights. Later, when I was president, I came to rely on her as a trusted partner in the fight to guarantee affordable healthcare and economic opportunity for everyone.
