WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 Los senadores estadounidenses de Oreg\u00f3n Jeff Merkley y Ron Wyden, junto con el representante Greg Walden, aplaudieron hoy la aprobaci\u00f3n en el Senado de un proyecto de ley presentado por la delegaci\u00f3n para cambiar el nombre de la cl\u00ednica del Departamento de Asuntos de Veteranos (VA) de EE. UU. en Bend en honor a Robert Maxwell, un Veterano de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y ganador de la Medalla de Honor que viv\u00eda en Bend.<\/p>\n
En el momento del fallecimiento de Maxwell, era el ganador de la Medalla de Honor de mayor edad en la naci\u00f3n y uno de los cuatro veteranos restantes de la Segunda Guerra Mundial en recibir la Medalla de Honor. Despu\u00e9s de su valiente servicio, trabaj\u00f3 como maestro en Bend.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cA lo largo del tiempo que Robert Maxwell estuvo en uniforme durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y m\u00e1s tarde como maestro en el centro de Oreg\u00f3n, respondi\u00f3 al llamado de servir y anteponer las necesidades de los dem\u00e1s\u201d, dijo Merkley, quien present\u00f3 el proyecto de ley en el Senado<\/b>. \u201cNombrar a la cl\u00ednica VA de Bend en honor al Sr. Maxwell ser\u00eda un tributo apropiado a su servicio y compromiso con su comunidad, y voy a seguir trabajando para que este proyecto de ley llegue a la meta y se convierta en ley\u201d.<\/p>\n
"El hero\u00edsmo de la Segunda Guerra Mundial de Robert Maxwell para nuestro pa\u00eds y luego su servicio ense\u00f1ando a generaciones de estudiantes en el centro de Oreg\u00f3n ejemplifican lo mejor de nuestro estado". wyden dijo<\/b>. \u201cEstoy contento de que el Senado haya aprobado este proyecto de ley para honrar al Sr. Maxwell, y seguir\u00e9 luchando para completar la tarea de nombrar la cl\u00ednica VA en Bend para este ganador de la Medalla de Honor y maestro destacado\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cBob Maxwell fue un h\u00e9roe estadounidense, servidor p\u00fablico y amigo de todos\u201d, dijo Walden, quien present\u00f3 la legislaci\u00f3n complementaria en la C\u00e1mara. <\/b>\u201cCambiar el nombre de Bend VA Clinic en su honor honrar\u00e1 su dedicaci\u00f3n a esta naci\u00f3n y servir\u00e1 como un recordatorio de todo lo que le dio a su comunidad en el centro de Oreg\u00f3n y su compromiso de por vida de ayudar a sus compa\u00f1eros en el servicio. Me complace que este proyecto de ley haya sido aprobado por el Senado e insto al Comit\u00e9 de Asuntos de Veteranos de la C\u00e1mara de Representantes a que pase r\u00e1pidamente este proyecto de ley al pleno para que podamos llevarlo al escritorio del presidente Trump y pueda convertirse en ley, asegurando para siempre que se honre el legado de Bob y que su hero\u00edsmo sea recordado."<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Delegaci\u00f3n del Congreso de Oreg\u00f3n escribi\u00f3 anteriormente a los presidentes y miembros de rango de los comit\u00e9s de Asuntos de Veteranos del Senado y la C\u00e1mara<\/a> en apoyo del cambio de nombre. la ciudad de la curva, Departamento de la Legi\u00f3n Americana de Oreg\u00f3n<\/a>, Veteranos de Guerras Extranjeras Departamento de Oreg\u00f3n<\/a>, y Departamento de Veteranos Estadounidenses Discapacitados de Oreg\u00f3n<\/a> tambi\u00e9n abog\u00f3 por el cambio.<\/p>\n
Actualmente, hay seis instalaciones m\u00e9dicas de VA en todo el pa\u00eds que llevan el nombre de los ganadores de la Medalla de Honor, incluida la Cl\u00ednica de VA Loren R. Kaufman en The Dalles. Los pr\u00f3ximos pasos del proyecto de ley ser\u00edan que se aprobara en la C\u00e1mara de Representantes de los EE. UU. antes de que el presidente lo promulgara.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
