“A lo largo de su vida y su dedicada carrera, Roberto Clemente dedicó su tiempo, energía y recursos a las comunidades afroamericana y latina, y ejemplificó el espíritu de servicio comunitario. Su carrera, que lo llevó al Salón de la Fama, fue histórica en todos los sentidos”, dijo Espaillat, presidente del Caucus Hispano del Congreso y electo por un distrito de Nueva York. Democrats Charles Schumer and Adriano Espaillat revived legislation this week in Congress proposing to create commemorative coins in honor of Puerto Rican baseball legend Roberto Clemente. “Roberto Clemente was a legendary baseball player and humanitarian,” said Schumer, the Democratic Senate Minority Leader and New York City elected representative. The legislation passed the House of Representatives last December but failed to advance in the Senate. “Throughout his life and dedicated career, Roberto Clemente dedicated his time, energy, and resources to the African American and Latino communities, and exemplified the spirit of community service. His career, which led him to the Hall of Fame, was historic in every sense,” said Espaillat, chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and a New York City elected representative.
