“This week, law enforcement officers from across our country are gathering here in Washington for National Police Week. It is a time when we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our communities and our great country--the greatest country the world has ever known--and to commit ourselves to supporting those who serve us day in and day out. Every day, these men and women put on a vest and a badge, kiss their loved ones good-bye, and head out the door, not knowing whether they will be coming home. Their courage, selflessness, and commitment to safety will never be forgotten. To the families who carry the weight of this loss every day, we stand with them. We pray for them and remain forever grateful for their loved one's service. We must redouble our commitment to investing in law enforcement to make sure we protect our great country.”
