Here's an explanation from one of them as to why he voted "no" ... whether or not you believe him or in his rationale is up to you, but many in the twitterverse aren't having it: https://twitter.com/CongressmanHice/status/1405184287985606660

I don't think those folks would fall under this:

Congressional Gold Medals — one of the highest civilian honors — to police officers who defended the Capitol during the violent Jan. 6 insurrection.

I would expect that those you describe - if they exist - would be described as those who demonstrated dereliction of duty and participated in the insurrection.

Sedition Caucus members can’t support law enforcement unless the cops work for them. Hice and the others must clutch their pearls instead.
