Passing of Donald Payne

Statement of Representative Bobby L. Rush on the Passing of Rep. Donald Payne of New Jersey

It is with profound sadness that I have learned of the passing of my close friend and colleague, Rep. Donald Payne. We were the best of friends and travelled extensively together. We shared stories about our youthful involvement in the civil rights movement; he in the NAACP and I in the Black Panther Party.

He was a leader and statesman who I greatly admired and respected. Donald was not only a national leader, he was also an international leader. We shared a deep-seated and profound love for Sub-Saharan Africa and the African Diaspora. He was a teacher and leader for me on African matters.

As the first African-American to be elected to Congress from the State of New Jersey, as a senior member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health and Human Rights Rep. Payne was instrumental in leading the legislative fight to free political prisoners in Ethiopia, urging the removal of the dictatorial president of the Ivory Coast, providing financial relief to Haiti after the earthquake in 2010 and focusing the world’s attention on the genocide in Darfur.

Rep. Payne was a strong and passionate advocate for humanitarian relief. As recently as last week he was recognized by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) which announced the creation of the Donald Payne Development Fellowship, to attract outstanding young people to careers in international development. As Chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF) since 2010, Rep. Payne sought to continue expanding the CBCF’s vision internationally. He looked to partner with African nations in an effort to intersect the paths of African-Americans and Africans on the issues, challenges and opportunities impacting us in education, health, economic, social and political empowerment.

My wife Carolyn and the people of the 1st Congressional District of Illinois join with me in extending our prayers and support to the family, friends, staff and constituents of a brother beloved, Rep. Donald Payne.
