U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) has died at the age of 90. Her office in a statement said the California Democrat passed away at her Washington home on Thursday night.

The California Democrat was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1992. Feinstein in 1978 became San Francisco’s mayor after the assassination of Mayor George Moscone and openly gay Supervisor Harvey Milk. “Her passing is a great loss for so many, from those who loved and cared for her to the people of California that she dedicated her life to serving,” reads the statement that Feinstein’s office released. “Senator Feinstein never backed away from a fight for what was just and right,” it added. “At the same time, she was always willing to work with anyone, even those she disagreed with, if it meant bettering the lives of Californians or the betterment of our nation.” “Senator Dianne Feinstein’s passing is a loss for us all,” tweeted Human Rights Campaign President Kelley Robinson. “Her steadfast support for the LGBTQ+ community and the fight for justice will be remembered.

We carry her legacy forward in our relentless pursuit of equality without exception.” The post Dianne Feinstein dies at 90 appeared first on Washington Blade: LGBTQ News, Politics, LGBTQ Rights, Gay News.

And in his first speech from the chamber as speaker, Mr. Johnson cast his ascendance to the position second in line to the presidency in religious terms, saying, “I believe God has ordained and allowed each one of us to be brought here for this specific moment.” Mr.
