Legislation supported by House Democrats would punish former President Donald Trump long after he’s gone.
The bill introduced on Jan. 25 by Democratic Rep. Linda Sanchez of California is referred to as the ‘‘No Glory for Hate Act.”
“For years, Donald Trump poured gasoline on lies, encouraging racism and hatred, then lit the match on January 6th. A president who has been impeached twice does not deserve the honors bestowed on a former president,” Sanchez said in a news release.

“We should never glorify the hatred Donald Trump personified as President. This bill ensures that there is no glory for hate — not a building, statue, or even a park bench,” she said.
The bill never refers to Trump by name, instead saying that it would “prohibit the use of Federal funds for the commemoration of certain former Presidents, and for other purposes.”
