Brian Mast says Congress has no vote 'more honorable' than for that of Medal of Sacrifice Act

Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL) previewed the need to pass his recently introduced Medal of Sacrifice Act in Congress, which he called an “acknowledgement” of the sacrifices police officers and other first responders provide.

Mast joined President Donald Trump and others in the Oval Office last week to honor three deputies in Florida, who were killed in a traffic accident just before Thanksgiving last year. The Florida congressman introduced his bill during the memorial ceremony, during which Trump urged him to work with Congress to pass the legislation and “get it done.”
