Joe Biden is awarding Liz Cheney a Citizen Service medal.

This is the second-highest civilian award the US government grants.

Yahoo reported:

US President Joe Biden on Thursday will award Liz Cheney, a former Republican congresswoman and fierce critic of Donald Trump, with a citizens service medal, after the incoming president warned that she “could be in a lot of trouble” with the law once he takes office.

The ex-House representative from Wyoming, along with 19 other prominent figures, will be awarded the Presidential Citizens Medal for “exemplary deeds of service for their country or their fellow citizens,” the White House said in a statement.

Other recipients of the medal — the second highest civilian award granted by the US government — will include former US senator Chris Dodd, ex-US House representative Carolyn McCarthy and current lawmaker Bennie Thompson, who chaired the House committee that investigated Trump’s role in the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot.

Describing Liz Cheney, the White House said Thursday that she “has raised her voice — and reached across the aisle — to defend our Nation and the ideals we stand for: Freedom. Dignity. And decency.”

“Her integrity and intrepidness remind us all what is possible if we work together,” it added.
