A great and well-deserved honor. Is there a reason 21 Republicans voted against bestowing the honor to law enforcement?

The GOP who voted against the bill claimed that January 6th was not an "insurrection"

21 Republicans vote no on bill to award Congressional Gold Medal for January 6 police officers
Despite the House and Senate coming to an agreement that will award the Congressional Gold Medal to the officers who defended the Capitol, 21 House Republicans voted against the legislation Tuesday, the latest reminder that members of Congress still cannot agree on the facts of the deadly January 6 riot.

Because they were doing their job. So bad that only an unarmed protester was murdered. Using this pitiful standard, there should be many combatants, active and Vets that get the same award.
