Why the no?

I'm sure there are reasons.

Only one congresswoman voted against the use of force after 9/11. Turns out that was probably the correct vote. There are other examples throughout history where the minority vote was justified.
 
What’s the criteria for a Gold Medal award? Are we supposed to have the knowledge to express an informed opinion on this from a tweet?
 
Same people voting no to that who voted no to a bi-partisan commission on Jan 6th. They're idiots masquerading as "Patriots".

NYShore is definitely partisan tho as 09 says, hell point out the morons on the right but wont acknowledge the idiots on the loonytoon left.

There isn't a requirement. The requirement is if congress approves to show appreciation for whatever they want, or not. Jack Nicklous has one for basically being good at golf.

So everybody gets a trophy? Sounds like a feel-good award. Good to see our tax dollars at work. Congress has nothing better to do I guess.

Right, but still a bit off that some of these members had voted yes to previous feel-good awards but no on the one to the people that were defending the US capital.

Because it’s politics? They all do it.
 
Not really. You would have a pretty difficult time finding members that have voted for some congressional gold medals and against others.
Yes really…just look at the voting that follows party lines on most legislation.

There was real risk for the officers who were on duty that day as they attempted to keep control of the Capitol Building. The House passes a bill essentially thanking them and you refer to it as "everyone gets a trophy"?
 
I find it comical that many members of the pro-police crowd (of which I am) are so ambivalent towards what the capitol police dealt with that day and even making up phony conspiracy theories about that days events to shift blame (see Tucker Carlson last night). Its all quite sad.
