Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today in full support of H. Res. 1226, memorializing law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty, that I am proudly co-leading with Representatives Michael Guest, Chris Pappas, and Abigail Spanberger. Today, I would like to take a moment to honor the courageous heroes from my home State of Louisiana who have been added to the Fallen Law Enforcement Officers Memorial: Officer Carl Douglas Kimball; Deputy Sheriff Marylin Anjanette Mayo; Officer Trevor Aron Abney; Corporal Scotty Wayne Canezaro; Sergeant Nicholas Neal Pepper; Sergeant Charles Fitzgerald Dotson; Lieutenant Barry Paul Giglio; Corporal Robert William McKinney; Deputy First Class Kyle Michael Melancon; Sergeant David Jacob Poirrier; Corporal Shawn Kevin Kelly; and Lieutenant Michael Stephen Godawa. I ask everyone to join me in praying for these officers and their families who put their lives on the line each day for every American. May we continue to teach future generations the critical mission that law enforcement personnel undertake in service to our communities. ____________________”
