Mr. NADLER. Mr. Speaker, it is with a heavy heart that I rise today, alongside my colleagues in the New York delegation, to mourn the loss of our dear friend and former colleague, Eliot Engel.
three decades in Congress, Eliot was a tireless champion for the people of the Bronx, Westchester, and Rockland County.
such issues as healthcare, energy, and consumer protection. Yet, Eliot had perhaps his greatest impact as chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee, which he led with integrity and experience, lending strength and credibility to America's role in the world.
Most of all, he will be remembered as an unwavering friend to Israel. As the Congressional Jewish Caucus noted upon his passing, Eliot Engel “is among the pantheon of champions of our people who have served with distinction in the Halls of Congress.”
Our thoughts are with his wife, Pat, and all of his loved ones. May his memory be a blessing.
Mr. Speaker, I ask that all Members and staff rise for a moment of silence in remembrance of Chairman Eliot Engel.
