<p>A bipartisan pair of lawmakers want <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/congress" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Congress</a> to honor the slain Pennsylvania man who is being hailed as a hero for protecting his family during the attempted assassination of former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a> during a campaign rally in the Keystone State over the weekend.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://gaetz.house.gov/sites/evo-subsites/gaetz.house.gov/files/evo-media-document/PIH-Corey%20Comperatore%20Resolution.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">resolution</a> offered by Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) on Tuesday would have the House recognize the life and service of Corey Comperatore, a 50-year-old volunteer firefighter, and acknowledge the man &#8220;gave his life for his wife and two daughters.&#8221; U.S. government officials and politicians would be called to &#8220;condemn the attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump&#8221; if the resolution is passed. The House would also condemn &#8220;political violence in all its forms&#8221; if the measure is approved.</p>
<p>&#8220;Corey Comperatore should not have lost his life exercising his First Amendment right by going to a political rally,&#8221; Gaetz said in a <a href="https://gaetz.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressmen-matt-gaetz-and-jared-moskowitz-introduce-resolution-honoring-corey" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>. &#8220;There is no place for political violence in America! Corey’s selfless and courageous actions exemplify the highest standards of bravery and devotion to both his family and his country. This resolution seeks to commemorate his extraordinary bravery and unwavering commitment to public service after he heroically sacrificed his life while shielding his family from gunfire intended for &#8230; President Trump.&#8221;</p>
<p>Moskowitz, in his own statement, said that &#8220;Corey Comperatore led his life keeping his community safe and spent the last moments of his life shielding his family from danger. No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, those are the brave qualities we should all salute. He deserved the ability to go to a political rally and return home. I hope that my colleagues will join us in honoring his sacrifice.&#8221;</p>
<p>When the gunman opened fire on Saturday at Trump&#8217;s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, a bullet ripped through the former president&#8217;s ear. Secret Service personnel killed the shooter, but not before one rally-goer — Comperatore — was killed and two others were injured, and rushed to the former president to offer him protection. Questions <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/14/politics/secret-service-faces-serious-questions-about-security-footprint-and-rooftop-access-at-trump-event/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">have been raised</a> about how the shooter managed to get onto a nearby rooftop and start shooting from roughly 150 yards away. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/secret-service-director-to-appear-for-public-hearing-on-trump-assassination-attempt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">is set to testify</a> about the attack in a public hearing before the House Oversight Committee next week. Moskowitz is a member of the panel.</p>

<p>Pennsylvania Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro (D-PA) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/firefighter-killed-at-trump-rally-hailed-as-hero-for-shielding-his-family?topStoryPosition=4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said Comperatore died a &#8220;hero&#8221;</a> while noting that the man&#8217;s wife &#8220;shared with me that he dove on his family to protect them.&#8221; Shapiro described Comperatore as a “girl dad” and pillar of the community, adding, &#8220;Corey was the very best of us, may his memory be a blessing.&#8221; And Trump himself said on Truth Social, “Our love goes out to the other victims and their families. We pray for the recovery of those who were wounded, and hold in our hearts the memory of the citizen who was so horribly killed.”</p>
<p>Officials have identified 57-year-old David Dutch and 74-year-old James Copenhaver, both of Pennsylvania, as the two injured victims. Pennsylvania State Police <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/pennsylvania-police-identify-victims-of-attempted-trump-assassination" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on Sunday that Dutch and Copenhaver were listed as being in stable condition. A <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/president-trump-seeks-support-for-butler-pa-victims?attribution_id=sl:7e5f8cd0-0408-4962-912b-6bc410e4f587" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GoFundMe</a> page <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/dana-white-kid-rock-donate-to-fundraiser-for-shooting-victims-surpasses-2-million-in-under-24-hours" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8220;authorized&#8221; by Trump</a> for the victims of the shooting has raised nearly $5 million as of press time on Tuesday. Rockstar Kid Rock, UFC president Dana White, and former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy were among the tens of thousands of people who have donated to the cause.</p>
