The bill authorizes Congress to award Charles B. Rangel a gold medal after his death. The medal would recognize his public service and contributions to equality. The Treasury Secretary would decide its design, and the medal would go to his children, Steven and Alicia Rangel. The Secretary could also make bronze copies for sale.
The bill does not create new duties or benefits for the public. It authorizes a medal honoring Rangel.
The bill authorizes the United States Mint Public Enterprise Fund to pay the costs of making the medals. Bronze copies would be sold at a price that covers their costs, and sale proceeds would go into that fund.
The bill's stated purpose is to honor Rangel's military and public service, including his work for underserved communities and as a co-founder of the Congressional Black Caucus.
