Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) aims to recognize and honor U.S. Marine veteran Daniel Penny for his heroism and courage in apprehending a threat to public safety on a New York subway train earlier this month. The incident involved Penny placing a homeless man, Jordan Neely, in a fatal chokehold, which resulted in Neely\u2019s death and sparked protests across the city.<\/p>\n<h3>Correcting the Record<\/h3>\n<p>Despite being charged with manslaughter by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Penny\u2019s attorneys have argued that he was acting in self-defense when he restrained Neely, who had a history of mental illness and was acting erratically on the train. The resolution introduced by Ogles seeks to correct the record and commend Penny for his actions, which were intended to protect himself and innocent commuters from harm.<\/p>\n<h3>Disgusting Abuse of Power<\/h3>\n<p>Ogles has decried the charges against Penny as a \u201cdisgusting abuse of power\u201d by Bragg and an \u201cegregious assault on our justice system.\u201d Other Republicans, like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), have also spoken out in support of Penny.<\/p>\n<h3>Recognizing Heroism and Courage<\/h3>\n<p>The resolution specifically \u201crecognizes and honors\u201d Penny for his \u201cheroism and courage in apprehending a threat to public safety.\u201d It acknowledges that Penny learned the maneuver he used to restrain Neely during his time in the Marines and that no harm was intended by the action.<\/p>\n<h3>Joining the Full-Throttled Woke Mob<\/h3>\n<p>Ogles has criticized Bragg and the mainstream media for unjustly demonizing Penny and joining the \u201cfull-throttled woke mob\u201d in their condemnation of him. He argues that Penny deserves recognition and honor for his actions, which were intended to protect innocent lives.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Resolution introduced by Rep.
