A House Republican is calling for a new global peace award to be named after President Trump. In an op-ed provided to Newsmax, Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) proposed the idea of what she called the “Trump Peace and Prosperity Award.” “The Nobel Peace Prize once stood for strength, integrity, and moral clarity,” Tenney wrote, according to Newsmax. “Today, it too often rewards symbolism and politics instead of real achievement,” she added. “President Trump’s historic leadership freed 20 hostages, returned 4 remains, and secured a HISTORIC Middle East ceasefire. He’s earned the Nobel Peace Prize, but even more, he deserves the Trump Peace & Prosperity Award,” Tenney said.

Claudia Tenney (@RepTenney) October 13, 2025 Tenney writes in Newsmax: This year, the Nobel Committee honored María Corina Machado of Venezuela. Her bravery in the fight for democracy deserves recognition, but the world’s most consequential peacemaker, President Donald J. Trump, was again ignored. I am the only member of Congress to have officially nominated President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize twice. I will continue to nominate him every year that I am able, because his record speaks for itself. President Trump’s leadership has made great strides in bringing peace and stability to regions long defined by war and division. He delivered results that no one thought possible. Under President Trump’s leadership, America achieved what the global elite said was impossible. He negotiated the historic Abraham Accords, bringing Israel and several Arab nations together in a breakthrough that redefined Middle East diplomacy. He crushed ISIS, deterred Iran, kept North Korea in check, and restored American credibility abroad. And now, President Trump’s steady influence has once again changed the course of history. The new peace deal between Israel and Hamas, which includes a comprehensive ceasefire and the release of the hostages, builds directly on the foundation he laid through strength and decisive diplomacy. Trump proved that peace does not come from appeasement, but from power, clarity, and the courage to confront evil. “I nominated President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for 2 straight cycles. I will nominate him again when the nomination window opens. Awarding President Trump this honor would bring credibility back to this once venerable award,” Tenney said. “However, I think like minded souls should create a new award — ‘The Trump Peace and Prosperity Award’ — it will raise the standard and be the most inspirational and coveted award in the world,” she added.

Trump brokered a historic agreement between Israel and the United Arab Emirates to formalize ties between the countries during his first term in office. Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan signed the accords, which Trump hoped to expand to include other nations. The American president was also nominated for the Peace Prize for various agreements he struck to resolve crises and conflicts this year – but the submissions from the leaders of Cambodia, Pakistan and other nations came after the committee’s Jan. 31 deadline.
