He was there in his new role as acting deputy House sergeant at arms, CNN's Jeff Zeleny reported.Goodman became the face of resistance to the insurrection when shortly after the Capitol Hill attack, video showed him leading a mob of Trump supporters in the opposite direction of the Senate chambers. At the time, lawmakers were still debating an objection to Arizona's Electoral College vote count.In footage captured by , Goodman could be seen being chased up a Capitol staircase by the mob. When he reached a landing, he looked to his left, where he noticed the door to the Senate chambers was still unguarded. He then led the rioters to the right, away from lawmakers and toward backup officers.The Senate chambers wouldn't be secured until one minute later, according to CNN's timeline of events from the riot. Once Goodman led the rioters into a larger hall, backup officers arrived, though they were still outnumbered by rioters.A bipartisan trio of lawmakers introduced legislation last week to award Goodman with a Congressional Gold Medal for potentially saving lives on one of the darkest days in US history.The medal is reserved for Americans who've made "distinguished achievements and contributions" to their country.The-CNN-Wire &amp; 2021 Cable News Network, Inc., a WarnerMedia Company.
