BISMARCK – U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) issued the following statement on the passing of former North Dakota House Majority Leader Earl Strinden (R-Grand Forks):
“Earl Strinden was a North Dakota political legend. He was a born leader who always sought the most pragmatic solution to an issue or problem. He earned the respect of his colleagues with his wry humor, skill at consensus building, and sincere interest in their lives. He influenced the political and public service careers of many people, myself included, and set a very high bar for future generations to follow. Kris and I send our deepest condolences to his family.”
