Washington, D.C. -- In response to the passing of former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the following statement can be attributed to NAB President and CEO Gordon Smith:
“Harry Reid was a dear friend and colleague that I was privileged to serve with in the U.S. Senate. He was a committed patriot and public servant who fought hard not only for the residents of Nevada, but all Americans. He leaves behind a lasting legacy of service to his country. Sharon and I extend our deepest condolences to his family.”
