In a rare move, Rep. Maxine Waters requested a recorded vote on the suspension bill that would award the Congressional Gold Medal to Capitol Police and MPD, suggesting she wants to put members who may vote against the bill on the record.

For weeks House & Senate leaders debated how to honor police who protected Capitol on Jan. 6.

They've reached a deal to award Gold Medal to all USCP and DC police, not just Officer Goodman.
Recognition that hundreds acted bravely that terrible day.https://t.co/QHbEOFKDyk
Just now we voted to award the Congressional Gold Medal to heroic Capitol Police Officers who saved our lives on January 6th. 21 House republicans voted no. Disgraceful. https://t.co/akA5Jd6fHO

What is wrong with those 21 people. Disgraceful behavior for people who should care about their country but only care about gaining power fir their political party. Shame on them.
