Covenant School Heroes Congressional Gold Medal Act

This bill proposes to award Congressional Gold Medals to Officers Michael Collazo and Rex Englebert of the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department. The award recognizes their actions during the March 27, 2023, shooting at The Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, where they were credited with stopping the assailant.

The Congressional Gold Medal is the highest civilian honor bestowed by Congress, and this legislation serves as a formal national expression of gratitude for the officers' bravery. While the bill does not change public policy or law, it honors the first responders' service and preserves the historical record of their response to the tragedy.
