Political Quotes

“as we all know, this week is National Police Week. This is the time when we honor the brave men and women who put their lives on the line every single day to keep our families safe. This week is especially meaningful because, here in DC, we honored North Las Vegas police officer Jason Roscow, who died in the line of duty last year, and he will be memorialized on the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial wall. Officer Roscow was an Air Force veteran who helped keep the North Las Vegas community safe for 17 years. He was described as a friend and a mentor to other members of the department. We will forever be grateful for his sacrifice, and he will be dearly missed. Law enforcement officers like Jason Roscow risk their lives every day to protect our communities, and while we recognize that service throughout the year, National Police Week is an opportunity to express our gratitude. For me, supporting law enforcement is personal. My husband is a retired law enforcement officer, and I have seen firsthand the sacrifices that our officers and their families make so our families feel safe at home. That is why I have worked with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to champion legislation to support police officers across the country.”
