The U.S. Capitol Police officer who was seen leading protesters who had stormed the building on Jan. 6 away from lawmakers deserves a Congressional Gold Medal, according to a measure introduced on Jan. 14.
Reps. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.), and Charlie Crist (D-Fla.), who introduced the bill, said Eugene Goodman deserves the medal “for his bravery and quick thinking during last week’s insurrection at the United States Capitol.”
