Luna is leading a group of other GOP representatives who want to give Trump the Congressional Gold Medal. Joining the Florida congresswoman is fellow Floridian Mike Waltz, Guy Reschenthaler of Pennsylvania, Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Andy Ogles of Tennessee, and Randy Weber of Texas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Trump\u2019s fearless leadership reestablished America as a respected and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/house-republican-introduces-resolution-to-award-trump-congressional-gold-medal\/\" title=\"House Republican proposes Trump for Congressional Gold Medal\">admired global power<\/a>,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/gop-congresswoman-makes-huge-announcement-life-happened-11-women\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Luna<\/a> said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is time we recognize a president who put our country first and secured global peace through bold diplomacy,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite the liberal media\u2019s attempts to spread fear, America and the world were undoubtedly safer under President Donald Trump. One of our duties in Congress is to honor those who have contributed significantly to our nation, and that\u2019s why I\u2019m introducing this legislation,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal are the two highest civilian awards in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Despite endorsing Ron DeSantis earlier this year, Republican and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/house-freedom-caucus-boots-congressman-hasnt-conservatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">House Freedom Caucus<\/a> Chairman Bob Good is also supporting Luna\u2019s proposal.<\/p>\n<div id=\"firefly-poll-container\">\n<p>Does Donald Trump deserve this award?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cPresident Trump did more in four years on behalf of the American people than any president in my lifetime. He secured our border, achieved historic peace in the Middle East, and implemented policies that helped our economy prosper,\u201d Good said of the medal proposal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe last three years of a failed Biden administration have only served as a stark contrast to President Trump\u2019s record,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Other recipients have included the Dalai Lama, members of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/another-gaffe-biden-blames-black-vaccine-hesitancy-experimentations-tuskegee-airmen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tuskegee Airmen<\/a>, golfer Jack Nicklaus, and many others, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/live-updates\/2024\/05\/14\/congress\/congressional-medal-for-trump-house-gop-00157932\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Politico<\/a> added.<\/p>\n<p>If Trump were to be awarded the medal, he would be the first former president to receive the award since Ronald Reagan was honored in 2000, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/3003850\/house-republican-resolution-trump-congressional-gold-medal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Washington Examiner<\/a> wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Before Reagan, other presidents honored by the medal include George Washington, Ulysses S. Grant, Harry Truman, and Gerald Ford.<\/p>\n<p>Still, it seems unlikely that Trump will receive the honor. While it is likely the House of Representatives could agree to the measure and pass it onto the Senate, it seems far less likely that the upper chamber will agree and add their imprimatur to the proposal.<\/p>\n<p>GOP House members have tried a number of ways to show their support for the former president. Rep. Reschenthaler, for instance, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/republicans-move-rename-major-airport-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">proposed<\/a> that Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia be renamed as the Donald J. Trump International Airport.<\/p>\n<p>Embattled House Speaker Mike Johnson also showed up to support Trump when he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/mike-johnson-everybody-can-see-dems-are-prosecuting-trump-to-keep-him-off-the-campaign-trail\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">appeared<\/a> in Manhattan during the former president\u2019s corporate records trial.<\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump most certainly deserves an award such as this, far more than the man currently occupying the White House. As every move Biden makes seems to make life more difficult \u2014 and even more dangerous \u2014 for Americans, Trump is trying to put America back on the right track.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div>\n<p><b><i>An Important Message from Our Staff:<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span>We who work here at The Western Journal have fought for years against Big Tech and the elites who want to shut us down and then shut America down. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>Make no mistake \u2014 nothing will be the same after November 2024.
