President Joe Biden honored multiple figures with the Presidential Medal of Freedom during a ceremony on Friday, including Democratic Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California, who previously served as speaker of the House and was the first and only woman ever to serve in that role.
Biden predicted that Pelosi will go down in history as the greatest House speaker.
"It is with great appreciation that I accept the Presidential Medal of Freedom from our great and patriotic President of the United States Joe Biden," Pelosi said in a statement. "Freedom was the vision of our founders, has been the goal of our men and women in uniform, and is our promise to our children. It is with reverence for freedom and respect for all who have received it that I am deeply honored and forever grateful. Thank you, President Biden."
Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff of California congratulated Pelosi in a tweet, calling the award "a fitting honor for the greatest Speaker of all time."

Former Vice President Al Gore, who is known for promoting climate alarmism ideology, also received the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Friday. Gore, a Democrat, lost the 2000 presidential election to Republican candidate George W. Bush.
John Kerry, who has previously served as special presidential envoy for climate under Biden, secretary of state under Barack Obama, and as a U.S. senator, also received the medal. Kerry, a Democrat, lost the 2004 presidential election to Bush.
Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg was also one of the award recipients.
In all, there were 19 people honored with the award on Friday, though the medal was being posthumously awarded in some cases.

Patriots coach Bill Belichick declines to accept Presidential Medal of Freedom from Trump
New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick declined to accept a Presidential Medal of Freedom after it was offered to him by President Donald Trump.
The stunning rebuke came on Monday in a statement from the coach who is considered to be among the greatest coaches in NFL history.
"Recently, I was offered the opportunity to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which I was flattered by out of respect for what the honor represents and admiration for prior recipients," Belichick said in a statement.
"Subsequently, the tragic events of last week occurred and the decision has been made not to move forward with the award," he added. "Above all, I am an American citizen with great reverence for our nation's values, freedom and democracy. I know I also represent my family and the New England Patriots team.
"One of the most rewarding things in my professional career took place in 2020 when, through the great leadership within our team, conversations about social justice, equality and human rights moved to the forefront and became actions," he concluded. "Continuing those efforts while remaining true to the people, team and country I love outweigh the benefits of any individual award."
President Trump has faced many calls to resign after he spoke at a massive rally last Wednesday against the certification of the election results and later, many of the protesters assaulted the U.S. Capitol. Five people died as a result of the violence at the Capitol.
Also on Monday, acting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf resigned, becoming the third member of Trump's Cabinet to resign since the Capitol rioting.
In April 2017, Belichick and the Patriots team went to the White House for a celebration following their Super Bowl victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Belichick gave the president a Patriots jersey and a helmet at that celebration.
The Patriots fared far worse in the 2020 NFL season, having missed the playoffs for the first time in over a decade.
