Oklahoma House of Representatives Speaker Charles McCall released a statement regarding the passing of former U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe on July 9.
He began by talking about his legacy and how it affected this country.
“Sen. Jim Inhofe was someone who truly lived up to his middle name of Mountain. A giant in Oklahoma and American politics, his steadfast leadership helped shape the course of our state and nation for decades,” McCall said. “His contributions to our nation’s military and aviation infrastructure will benefit our country for generations to come, and his commitment to his conservative values was unwavering. There are few who have served in the U.S. Senate who were as well-respected and revered as Sen. Inhofe, and we truly will not see his like again. My condolences go out to his family during this extremely difficult time.”
