Charles B. Rangel Congressional Gold Medal Act

HR 3760, the Charles B. Rangel Congressional Gold Medal Act, authorizes the posthumous award of a Congressional Gold Medal to honor former U.S. Representative Charles B. Rangel for his decades of service to the nation. The medal, to be struck by the U.S. Mint and presented by the Speaker of the House and President pro tempore of the Senate, will be given to Rangel's children after the ceremony. This commemorative measure recognizes Rangel's contributions as a Korean War veteran, founder of the Congressional Black Caucus, and champion of legislation like the African Growth and Opportunity Act.
