Outgoing President Joe Biden will award the Presidential Citizens Medal to Liz Cheney and Bennie Thompson for their investigation into the January 6 Capitol riot.
The award serves as a final admonishment to Donald Trump before the transition of power.
Biden's administration highlighted the honorees' dedication to public service and democracy.
Trump has previously criticized Cheney and Thompson, accusing them of mishandling evidence related to the Capitol investigation.
Other recipients include advocates for marriage equality, gun safety, and women's rights alongside Cheney and Thompson.
