LINK 12 House Republicans Vote Against Bill Awarding Congressional Medals to Police for Protecting the Capitol on Jan. 6

'Continuing their battle with calling the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol an insurrection, an attempted coup, and domestic terrorism, several House Republicans refused to support legislation awarding three Congressional gold medals to Capitol Police and other officers for defending lawmakers and democracy that day.

The vote was 413-12. The only representatives not voting were also Republicans, five did not cast their ballot..

“On January 6, 2021, a mob of insurrectionists forced its way into the U.S. Capitol building and congressional office buildings and engaged in acts of vandalism, looting, and violently attacked Capitol Police officers,” the bill reads in part.

Among those voting against the bill was “QAnon Congresswoman” Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, along with Reps. Louie Gohmert, Andy Biggs, Andy Harris, Lance Gooden, Michael Cloud, Andrew Clyde, Bob Good, Greg Steube, and John Rose.

Far right MAGA acolyte Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida also voted against the bill.'

What a coincidence that many who voted No are also now being named as collaborating with the organizers of the insurrection. Who'd have thought it.

That's their real pro-police values in action.

Well, they were picking on white Republicans. Everyone knows the police are only supposed to go after Black people. (sarcasm!)
