The National Jewish Democratic Council extends its condolences to the family and friends of former Representative John Adler (D-NJ), who passed away earlier today. Adler served in the House of Representatives from 2009 until 2011 and prior to that was a distinguished New Jersey State Senator. As a member of the Jewish community, Adler was immersed in many of the issues important to American Jews, including Israel and caring for our nation’s seniors. Adler was a moderate voice in a divided House who consistently worked to achieve compromise with his colleagues across the aisle.
May John’s memory be a blessing. Our prayers and love are with you and the boys. Love, Barbara and Mike
