SEATTLE, WA - Representative Adam Smith (D-Wash.), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, today issued the following statement on the passing of former Congresswoman Jolene Unsoeld.
"With the passing of Congresswoman Unsoeld, Washington State - and the entire country - have lost a true champion for women, children, and the health of our planet.
