Nancy Pelosi(@SpeakerPelosi):Harry Mitchell devoted his life to public service, from educating generations of young Arizonans in the classroom to serving the people of Tempe in the Arizona Legislature and the Congress. Throughout his career, he was a steadfast advocate for veterans, helping strengthen the 21st Century G.I. Bill and expanding educational opportunity for those who served our nation. May it be a comfort to Harry’s children, Mark and Amy, his grandchildren, and all who loved him that so many across Arizona and our country mourn with them at this sad time.
