President Joe Biden has awarded Trump critic Liz Cheney with the Presidential Citizens Medal. It is the second-highest honor within the United States, given to members of a congressional committee that investigated the attack on the Capital on Jan 6, 2021.
“ The most important title in America is not president but citizen. It is ‘We the people,'” Biden said, quoting the preamble to the US Constitution. “ These are the words of the rock upon which this entire nation has been built.”
“ I’ve been honored to present law enforcement officers who defended our Capitol on January 6th and the state and local election officials, elected leaders, who defended the free and fair election of 2020,” Biden said at Thursday’s ceremony.
“Today, we celebrate a new group of Americans who dedicated their careers to serving our democracy in other essential ways.”
