Honoring the accomplishments and legacy of Rita Moreno.
This resolution (HRES 946) formally honors Rita Moreno, a pioneering Puerto Rican actress and cultural icon, for her historic achievements and advocacy. It recognizes her as the first Latina to win an Academy Award (1962), her EGOT status (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony), and her lifelong work advancing civil rights and Latino representation in the arts. The resolution calls on the U.S. public to celebrate her legacy, which embodies the American dream and cultural contributions of Latinas. As a commemorative resolution, it has no legal effect but symbolically celebrates her impact on American culture and the performing arts.
