The veteran was the first woman to head the Senate’s powerful intelligence committee.
Dianne Feinstein, seen here in August 2000, was celebrated as a pioneer for women in politics.
Her death is not expected to shift the tight balance of power in the Senate, with the Democratic governor of California appointing a temporary replacement for the remainder of her term, which ends in January 2025. The Californian, who was widowed last year, became San Francisco’s first female mayor after the fatal shooting in 1978 of city official Harvey Milk, at the time the country’s only openly gay politician, and mayor George Moscone by a disgruntled former colleague.
Summing up her dedication to public service, Feinstein once said that “even with a divided Congress, we can still pass bills that will improve lives. Each of us was sent here to solve problems.”
