Political leaders evoke his democratic legacy at the Cristo Redentor cemetery and call on new generations to follow the example of the social democratic leader.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Santo Domingo.\u2014<\/strong>\u00a0With an act full of political symbolism and historical memory, the Municipal Committee of the Modern Revolutionary Party (PRM) in Santo Domingo North paid tribute to Dr. Jos\u00e9 Francisco Pe\u00f1a G\u00f3mez on the occasion of the 89th anniversary of his birth, remembering him as one of the most influential mass leaders in the democratic history of the country.<\/p>\n\n\nThe activity took place in the mausoleum where his remains rest in the Cristo Redentor cemetery, where floral offerings were placed and cultural expressions and vigils were held, in compliance with Law 46-23 promulgated on August 3, 2023 by President Luis Abinader, which declares April 6 of each year as \"National Day in honor of Dr. Jos\u00e9 Francisco Pe\u00f1a G\u00f3mez<\/strong>\".\n\nThe event was led by the president of the PRM in Santo Domingo Norte, Isidro Torres, who highlighted that Pe\u00f1a G\u00f3mez transcended as a benchmark in the fight for freedom, social justice, and democratic consolidation.\n\n\n

\n

\u201cPe\u00f1a G\u00f3mez had from the beginning the category of political leader, strategist, organizer and exceptional communicator. He was an insatiable reader, polyglot, warrior and peacemaker, but above all a permanent lover of democracy\u201d, he expressed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nTorres recalled that, despite the precariousness that marked his origin, the social democratic leader managed to train at prestigious universities around the world and project his leadership internationally. He also evoked the historic rallies at the head of the 17th bridge, where the deceased leader proudly announced the arrival of the so-called \"Imperial Guard\" of Villa Mella, now Santo Domingo Norte.\n\n\n

\n

\"Politicians in some cases discredit ourselves, but politics does not. Whoever knows politics and copies the example of Pe\u00f1a G\u00f3mez has no reason to deviate. That is why we must always remember him as an exceptional man,\" he expressed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe attendees agreed that the figure of Pe\u00f1a G\u00f3mez continues to be a symbol of popular leadership, democratic commitment, and vocation for service, values that continue to inspire new generations of Dominicans.\n\nDuring the meeting, in addition to former President Hip\u00f3lito Mej\u00eda, Isidro Torres, president of the PRM in Santo Domingo Norte, the political leaders Dar\u00edo de Jes\u00fas, Francisco Fern\u00e1ndez, Virgilio Mer\u00e1n Valenzuela, Jos\u00e9 Manuel L\u00f3pez, Fernando Dur\u00e1n, Pastora Mendez, among others<\/a>, were present.\n\n\n
