The renowned artist and senator of the Monseñor Nouel province, Héctor Acosta, will be honored by the Consulate of the Dominican Republic in New York, in an act that exalts both his brilliant musical career and his firm social and political commitment.

This recognition highlights the more than 30 years Acosta has dedicated to music, as well as his five years of service as a legislator, where he has worked for the development and well-being of his province. The distinction emphasizes his impact on the entertainment industry and his valuable contribution as a public servant.

Popularly known as “El Torito”, Héctor Acosta has achieved a successful transition from the stage to the Senate, without losing touch with his roots or with the people who saw him grow. From his seat, he has promoted various initiatives in favor of equality, social justice, and community progress.
