Jim Inhofe, 89, dies after a long Senate career marked by fight against climate science
"Former Republican Sen. Jim Inhofe, the longest-serving U.S. senator in Oklahoma history and a proud critic of the overwhelming scientific consensus on human-caused climate change, died Tuesday. He was 89 years old.
A statement from his family confirmed that Inhofe, who was also a defense hawk and supporter of federal infrastructure spending, died five days after suffering a stroke July 4. Inhofe previously retired from the Senate in 2023 due to ill health with four years still left in his term.
After serving four terms in the House, Inhofe was elected to the Senate in a special election in 1994. His career coincided with Oklahoma, a state that had long been governed by conservative Democrats, becoming one of the nation’s most Republican states, something that Inhofe, a staunch conservative, clearly embraced."
