John D. Dingell Jr., a Michigan Democrat who, as the longest-serving member of Congress in U.S. history, used his considerable power in the House of Representatives to uncover government fraud and defend the interests of his home state’s automobile industry, died Feb. 7 at his home in Dearborn. He was 92. Mr. Dingell was the 1996 recipient of the Bryce Harlow Award and we mourn the loss of this great man. More information may be found here.
