Former Vice President Mike Pence will be presented with the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award in Boston for "putting his life and career on the line" during the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Pence, President Donald Trump's vice president during his first term in the White House, will receive the award on May 4. It will be presented by Caroline Kennedy, the only surviving child of President Kennedy, and her son, Jack Schlossberg, during a ceremony at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library.
Main Idea: Mike Pence will receive the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for certifying Joe Biden’s 2020 win during the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Key Points:
The award may deepen political anger for voters who still see January 6 as a threat to democracy.
Pence’s certification decision may reassure some voters that constitutional rules can hold during a crisis.
