I fully support the United States S Bill 858 to honor the brave Medal of Honor recipients with a commemorative work on the National Mall. It's important to recognize the extraordinary acts of valor, selfless service, and sacrifice displayed by these heroes. This will not only serve as a reminder of their courage, but also inspire future generations. I believe this bill will have a positive impact on our nation as a whole, reminding us of the sacrifices made by these individuals for our freedom. #MedalofHonor #NationalMall #Valor
