_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Designating the week of May 15 through May 21, 2022, as ``National
Police Week''.
Whereas Federal, State, local, and Tribal police officers, sheriffs, and other
law enforcement officers across the United States serve with valor,
dignity, and integrity;
Whereas law enforcement officers are charged with--
(1) pursuing justice for all individuals; and
(2) performing the duties of a law enforcement officer with fidelity to
the constitutional and civil rights of the public the officers serve;
Whereas law enforcement officers swear an oath to uphold the public trust even
though, through the performance of the duties of a law enforcement
officer, the officers may become targets for senseless acts of violence;
Whereas law enforcement officers have bravely continued to meet the call of duty
to ensure the security of their neighborhoods and communities at the
risk of their own personal safety in the time of a viral pandemic;
Whereas the resolve to service is clearly demonstrated by law enforcement
officers across the country who have tragically fallen ill or passed
away due to complications of COVID-19 contracted in the line of duty;
Whereas, in 1962, President John Fitzgerald Kennedy signed Public Law 87-726
(referred to in this preamble as the ``Joint Resolution''), which
authorizes the President to proclaim May 15 of every year as ``Peace
Officers Memorial Day'' in honor of the Federal, State, and local
officers who have been killed, disabled, or otherwise injured in the
line of duty;
Whereas the Joint Resolution also authorizes the President to designate the week
in which Peace Officers Memorial Day falls as ``National Police Week'';
Whereas the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, dedicated on October 15,
1991, is the national monument to honor those law enforcement officers
who have died in the line of duty;
Whereas Peace Officers Memorial Day, 2022, honors the 576 law enforcement
officers killed in the line of duty during 2021, including--
(1) Edgardo Acosta-Feliciano;
(2) Darrell D. Adams;
(3) Tracey A. Adams;
