Political Quotes

“This week is National Police Week. I rise today to honor the brave men and women in blue who sacrifice their safety every day to keep our families and communities safe. Each day these Americans go to work willing to put their lives on the line for the security of their fellow Americans. We often hear the remarkable stories of our law enforcement officers. These men and women work long hours and late shifts, often being called into work and called away from their families. These are the people who risk their lives to protect our very neighborhoods, schools, communities, while asking nothing in return. These professionals exhibit the greatest love of all, and that is to offer their lives to protect another. I pray for those who have lost their lives, like Sergeant Greg Meagher, a 33-year veteran of the Richmond County Sheriff's Office who lost his life earlier this year in the line of duty. We will never forget his ultimate sacrifice. Our safety depends on these amazing people, and I am proud to honor them here today. ____________________”
