Statement from Mayor Kasim Reed on State Senator Robert Brown

"I am deeply saddened about the death of State Senator Robert Brown. He was an extraordinary public servant who cared about working-class people and issues such as education, healthcare and job creation not only in Macon, but throughout the state. He was a strong Democratic leader in the General Assembly and a tenacious fighter for his constituents. He was not only a colleague, but also a friend and mentor to me for many years while we served in the Senate. His passing is a great loss for the entire state of Georgia."
