Former U.S. Rep. Mia Love, R-Utah, died on Sunday at the age of 49, according to her family.
Love, who was the daughter of Haitian immigrants and the first black Republican woman elected to Congress, “passed away peacefully” surrounded by family.
“With grateful hearts filled to overflowing for the profound influence of Mia on our lives, we want you to know that she passed away peacefully today,” Love’s family said in a statement posted to X. “She was in her home surrounded by family.”
