Club Mourns Loss of William F. Buckley

Club for Growth Mourns the Loss of William F. Buckley, Jr.


Washington – Club for Growth President Pat Toomey released the following statement on the passing of conservative icon William F. Buckley, Jr.:

America has lost one of the great intellectual giants of the 20th century. William F. Buckley, Jr. was a renaissance man of intellectual brilliance, entertaining wit, and personal charm, but he will always be remembered first as the founder of the modern American conservative movement. He conceived it, nurtured it, grew it, and, when needed, purged it. Today the conservative movement in America is broad, strong, and vibrant—we all owe so much to the great man who began and guided it for so long. He will be sorely missed.
