"Barney's legacy will live on in the lives of countless Americans whose financial security was strengthened because of his work as Chair on the House Financial Services Committee.
He'll be remembered for his landmark Dodd-Frank Act; a law that reshaped modern financial oversight in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis.
Barney believed in protecting consumers and strengthening accountability on Wall Street.
I join the nation in mourning his passing and honoring a remarkable career of public service."
