Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) introduced a bill to give Kyle Rittenhouse the Congressional Gold Medal.
The bill’s full text is not yet available. Still, the summary says the bill would “award a Congressional Gold Medal to Kyle H. Rittenhouse, who protected the community of Kenosha, Wisconsin, during a Black Lives Matter (BLM) riot on August 25, 2020.”
Greene said in a statement to The Hill, “Kyle Rittenhouse deserves to be remembered as a hero who defended his community, protected businesses, and acted lawfully in the face of lawlessness. I’m proud to file this legislation to award Kyle Rittenhouse a Congressional Gold Medal.”
Last week, Rittenhouse was acquitted on all charges. He fatally shot two individuals and injured another during unrest that broke out following the police shooting of Jacob Blake.
