The New Jersey native spent 12 years as a congresswoman representing Contra Costa, Alameda and Solano counties in the Bay Area. She joined the Obama administration in 2009 as undersecretary of State for arms control and international security, under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
Ellen Tauscher began her career as a trailblazer, becoming one of the youngest members of the New York Stock Exchange straight out of college. She would go on to build a reputable career as a respected bipartisan politician, eventually working for the Obama administration before returning to California as a member of the UC Board of Regents.
“Ellen was a force to be reckoned with from the time she was a young girl growing up in Harrison, New Jersey. She succeeded at everything she did and made her mark wherever she went. She was the strongest, bravest person we have ever known,” her family said. After retirement, Tauscher remained involved in state affairs as a member of the UC Board of Regents and chairwoman of former Gov. Jerry Brown’s Military Advisory Council.
In a statement Tuesday morning, Feinstein remembered Tauscher as a force in politics and a “best friend.”
