and activism, recognizing their extraordinary contributions to society.

Among the recipients are global football legend Lionel Messi, celebrated actor Denzel Washington, iconic singer and activist Bono, basketball legend Earvin “Magic” Johnson, renowned fashion designer Ralph Lauren, and actor Michael J. Fox. Fashion editor Anna Wintour, chef José Andrés—founder of World Central Kitchen, and renowned primatologist Jane Goodall will also be honored.

The White House expressed that these honorees represent the finest leaders, known not only for their achievements but also for their profound impact on the world.

Other political figures receiving recognition include former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and billionaire philanthropist George Soros. Clinton is honored for her lifelong public service, while Soros is recognized for his global initiatives in advocating for democracy, human rights, and education.

A posthumous award will also be given to the late Robert F. Kennedy, former U.S. Attorney General, whose legacy of justice and public service continues to inspire. President Biden reflected on Kennedy’s lasting influence, noting that his commitment to equality and justice still resonates today.

Additionally, President Biden presented the Presidential Citizens Medal to Liz Cheney for her pivotal role in investigating the January 6 Capitol insurrection. This gesture, however, faced criticism from former President Donald Trump, who suggested that the award was merely a result of Cheney’s opposition to him.

This year’s honorees have left indelible marks on the world, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom reflects the remarkable impact they’ve had across various domains.
