WASHINGTON, D.C. (WRN) — A Wisconsin congressman wants President Donald Trump to receive a medal.
The Congressional Gold Medal is the highest civilian award bestowed by the United States Congress, and Representative Derrick Van Orden has introduced legislation to award the President with it. A press release from the Third District Republican states that’s in recognition of Trump’s record of ending wars around the world, including the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.
Van Orden also cites Trump not getting this year’s Nobel Peace Prize, which was awarded to a Trump ally, Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado.
