NORWICH, CT – On June 28, Congressman Joe Courtney (CT-02) issued the following statement on the passing of former Connecticut Governor Lowell Weicker:

“The passing Lowell Weicker at his home in Old Lyme surrounded by his wife Claudia and family will resonate far and wide,” Courtney said. “His service to our nation and state was always driven by the public good – whether it was caring for the disabled or defending our democracy and the constitution. He did not flinch from entering ‘the arena’ of public affairs as Theodore Roosevelt called it, to fight the good fight and in doing so, set an inspiring example of citizenship that will live on for generations to come.”
