Statement from Supervisor Steve Gallardo on the Passing of Sandra Day O'Connor
"Sandra Day O'Connor was the embodiment of what makes Arizona great: tough, independent, and above all, civil. She was respected on both sides of the political aisle because she treated everyone with respect. So much has been and should be said about her trailblazing: first woman to serve as Arizona Senate majority leader, first woman to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court. But I also admire her work after she left the bench, creating an institute that promoted civil discussion of important national and local issues. There will never be another Sandra Day O'Connor, but we should all aspire to be a little more like her."
