Mia Love, the first Black Republican woman elected to the U.S. Congress, has died at 49 after a prolonged fight with glioblastoma. Her family stated she passed peacefully at her home in Saratoga Springs, Utah, surrounded by loved ones. Earlier in March, her daughter revealed that Love was no longer responding to treatment, which included a clinical trial at Duke University. Love’s political journey began as a city council member in Saratoga Springs, later becoming mayor and serving in Congress from 2015 to 2019. Utah officials, including Governor Spencer Cox, have paid tribute to her impactful legacy.
