Quick Glance: Joe Lieberman, Former US Senator and Vice Presidential Candidate, Passes Away at 82

- Lieberman passed away in New York City as a result of complications following a fall.

- Renowned for his firm foreign policy perspectives, pro-defense inclinations, and robust support for environmental matters, Lieberman was instrumental in the legislative efforts leading to the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security.
