WASHINGTON — U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) today delivered the following remarks on the Senate floor: Thune’s remarks below (as delivered): “Mr. President, like many Americans, I was saddened to learn this morning of the death of former Vice President Dick Cheney. “Dick was a lifelong public servant who believed very deeply in our country, and brought his considerable knowledge and intelligence to its service. “As secretary of defense and later as vice president, he played a key role in shaping policy on many of the most consequential issues of his day. “He was also an avid outdoorsman and fly fisherman, who loved spending time in the mountains of his home state. “I enjoyed having him in South Dakota and showing off some of what our state has to offer. “Mr. President, my thoughts and prayers today are with his wife Lynne, with his two beloved daughters, and with his seven grandchildren.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:52:45Z |
