Yesterday, hundreds gathered in Washington, DC to honor and commemorate the life and legacy of Senator Joe Lieberman, a true statesman who dedicated his life to serving our country. As friends, family, and colleagues came together at Washington Hebrew Congregation to remember him, the celebration of his life was a testament to the values he cherished and the impact he made.
Senator Lieberman embodied the virtues of dignity and integrity and he always believed Democrats and Republicans could and should come together for the good of the country. As his former running mate Vice President Al Gore said so eloquently, "He put friendship over anger. He practiced reconciliation as a form of grace. I believe we can all learn from Joe's life some critical lessons about how we might heal the rancor in our nation today."
Senator Lieberman remains a north star for our movement as the "Lieberman way" is the only way Americans can break free from this cycle of division that is tearing us apart.
In Jewish tradition, planting a tree in Israel serves as a solemn tribute in memory of the departed. We see Senator Lieberman's legacy of grace and unity as its own tree, deeply rooted in the principles of mutual respect and cooperation. We remain hopeful that this tree will flourish and bear fruit, providing hope and stability in these challenging times for our nation.
We invite you to join us in this endeavor. Together, we can build on the foundation that Senator Lieberman helped establish, ensuring his dream of a cooperative and effective government becomes a lasting reality.
Thank you for standing with us as we honor Senator Joe Lieberman by continuing his work, fostering commonsense problem solving, and working for the greater good of our country.
