This week is Police Week. We honor the brave officers all across the country who continue to serve and truly remember those who gave their lives in the line of duty. Yesterday, I met with law enforcement officers from Wyoming here in the Capitol. There was a ranger from the Bureau of Land Management. She is from Buffalo, WY. There were also two police officers from Sheridan, WY, part of the same police department that lost Sergeant Nevada Krinkee, nearly 2 years ago. And they are in Washington, DC, this week to honor Sergeant Krinkee. It was an honor to thank these heroes for keeping our community safe. Every year the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial adds names of fallen officers to its memorial wall. This year, the names of 363 new fallen officers were added. One of the officers is someone who died in the past but research has disclosed should have been named, and that is Marshal Daniel Hansen of the Cokeville Police Department in Wyoming.
