Editorial: Timothy Johnson, 1946-2022 – Champaign News-Gazette*

"His political style seems quaint and odd at a time where members of Congress are much more apt to run hundreds of thousands of dollars in malicious advertising than, as (former U.S. Rep. and state Rep.) Johnson frequently did, hold town halls engage in debates or stop by a coffee shop. Rep. Johnson’s level of constituent service, civility to his colleagues and Democratic voters and refusal to sling mud in political campaigns was exemplary and is sorely missed in politics and government today."
