| https://kinzinger.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=399432 | Rep. Kinzinger on the Passing of Shimon Peres | 2016-09-28 | 2016 | 2016-09 | Republican | House | IL | Adam Kinzinger | K000378 | kinzinger.house.gov | legacy | Washington, DC Congressman Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) released the following statement in response to the passing of former Israeli President Shimon Peres last night: I join my colleagues in mourning the loss of one of Israel's founding fathers and Noble Peace Prize laureate, Shimon Peres. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and all those who walk in the bright light that he created. Shimon Peres enlightened the Jewish people by encouraging them to stand up, to innovate, and to dream big dreams. He was an immigrant to Israel, but Shimon Peres helped make Israel what it is today. He defended his country, served it for more than six decades, and wholly gave Israel his heart. This loss is a loss for the world. Shimon Peres was a champion for peace, a true statesman, a giant for the state of Israel, and an inspiring global figure. May his love of country and impressive legacy continue to inspire generations to come. And may his memory forever be a blessing for all. August 2011 Former President Shimon Peres and Congressman Adam Kinzinger in Israel. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
