Summary

Creates a new federal medal of sacrifice to honor law enforcement officers and first responders killed in the line of duty, sets basic eligibility rules (excluding those subject to an official finding of wrongdoing), and directs the President to establish a 12-member Presidential Commission to advise on design, promotion, presentation, and eligibility. The Commission will also resolve disputed cases where there is an official finding of wrongdoing and must award the new medal initially to three named deputies. The Commission must be appointed within 150 days, serve unpaid five-year terms (members may serve up to two terms), and will sunset after completing its assigned responsibilities. The statute also prescribes detailed physical specifications and appearance elements for the medal and ribbon; it includes no explicit appropriation or funding mechanism.
