Today, former U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman passed away at the age of 82. Senator Lieberman, a distinguished public servant and the first Jewish vice presidential nominee for a major party, served in recent years on the Combat Antisemitism Movement (CAM) Advisory Board. In reaction to Lieberman’s passing, CAM CEO Sacha Roytman released the following statement:
“I join the world in mourning Senator Lieberman’s passing. I got to know Joe during his time as a member of the CAM Advisory Board, a role to which he brought his passion for the safety and well-being of Jews worldwide, and I will forever be thankful for that opportunity. The Jewish people will particularly feel his loss because his iconic life, tireless public work, and steadfast commitment to the cause of freedom across the globe had a profound impact on each and every one of us. Even in death, Joe’s legacy will continue to serve as an inspiration for me and the entire CAM team. Our deepest condolences go out to Joe’s beloved wife Hadassah, his children, and the entire Lieberman family.”
