WASHINGTON – The Alzheimer’s Association named Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota its 2023 Alzheimer’s Impact Movement Humanitarian of the Year. Klobuchar is a member of the bipartisan Congressional Task Force on Alzheimer’s. Her father, veteran Minnesota sportswriter Jim Klobuchar, died of the disease in 2021. “His zest for life and his resilience were a source of strength for me,” she said. “The Alzheimer’s Association gave me an example of how to overcome obstacles, and also deepened my commitment to pushing for better treatments.”
