I cant believe this bill is passing! It will give out medals to people who dont deserve it. Why are they wasting money on this when there are more important things to focus on? How will this affect our country in the long run?

I don't like this new bill, it's gonna mess things up for me and others like me. It's not fair. Who benefits from this anyway?
