Every single day, our brave men and women in blue leave their families not knowing if they will return home. During National Police Week, we pause to show our gratitude for our law enforcement officers and recognize the sacrifices that they make every single day to keep our communities safe. Today, I particularly recognize Fred Fislar from the Hendricks County Sheriff's Office and Brandon Schreiber from the Newton County Sheriff's Office, two constituents of mine who tragically lost their lives in the line of duty in 2024. Their service and sacrifice will not be forgotten. To the law enforcement officers across the State of Indiana, I thank them for their unwavering courage, dedication, and service to our communities. I also thank the families of our law enforcement officers. Their strength, resilience, and sacrifices should also be honored and appreciated. Let this week serve as a reminder that we should always back the blue.
