"One of the most commanding and consequential Senate Majority Leaders in history, he forged extraordinary legislative progress: rescuing our economy during the Great Recession, protecting hardworking families with Wall Street reforms and moving our nation closer to our goal of universal health coverage. It is my solemn honor as House Speaker to pay tribute to a legendary leader, a great American and my dear friend, Senator Harry Reid.
Schumer said Reid"will be remembered as a great American, father, husband, Senate leader and one of history's most devoted fighters for the people of Nevada and the poor and middle class throughout the country. Describing Reid as"tough-as-nails strong" but"caring and compassionate," Schumer said he"always went out of his way quietly to help people who needed help."
Schumer added:"Harry never forgot where he came from, and I will miss my dear friend and mentor greatly. Few dedicated their life and career to working for and delivering for working families like Harry Reid, and it will be an honor to pay tribute to him in the Capitol next week." Reid was elected to the U.S House in 1982, and then the Senate in 1986. He served as Senate majority leader from 2007 to 2015.
