STATEMENT BY FCC COMMISSIONER MIGNON L. CLYBURN
ON THE PASSING OF SENATOR DANIEL INOUYE
“I celebrate the memory of one of our Nation’s most distinguished public servants.  From his 
Medal of Honor service in World War II,  to his more than 50 years in Congress on behalf of the 
state of Hawaii, to his leadership on the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and 
Transportation, few can match Senator Inouye’s dedication to this country.  It was an honor for 
me to testify before him and personally witness his legendary charm and strategic brilliance.”
