Congressman Todd Young (R-IN) released the following statement on the death of United States Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia at age 79:

"The Constitution lost one of its fiercest defenders today. Justice Scalia was a towering figure for generations of rising conservatives, and his unrelenting dedication to our Nation's founding principles will be among his great legacies. With his passing we mourn the loss of a powerful legal mind and pray his successor will similarly commit to restoring constitutional limits in an age of lax liberalism that has eroded the rule of law." -- Congressman Todd Young (R-IN)
