Statement by President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the Passing of Former Senator Ted Stevens

“We are saddened by the news of the plane crash that took the lives of our former colleague Senator Ted Stevens and four of his fellow passengers. Senator Stevens served our nation well, both in uniform and in the Senate, where he worked tirelessly for the people of Alaska for four decades. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the victims, those who survived, and the rescue workers who risked their own lives to save them.”
