Barney Frank, former congressman and gay rights pioneer, dies at 86

Former Massachusetts representative Barney Frank died this month at the age of 86. Obituaries have highlighted his role as an openly gay politician and his work on the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial reform package.

Frank continued to offer advice to Democrats even from his hospice bed. He expressed criticism of the progressive left for its focus on racial and cultural issues alongside economic inequality, particularly after his preferred Senate candidate in Maine lost a primary race.
