 Calling upon local communities to support organizations that provide 
     resources and aid Gold Shield Families in their time of need.

Whereas brave men and women across the United States serve as first responders, 
        courageously risking their lives to protect United States communities;
Whereas the families of these valiant first responders exhibit unparalleled 
        strength, resilience, and sacrifice, supporting their loved ones in 
        their noble service to the Nation;
Whereas the loss of a first responder in the line of duty is a profound tragedy 
        that leaves an enduring impact on their families, necessitating 
        unwavering support;
Whereas Gold Shield Families, families of fallen police officers, firefighters, 
        emergency medical technicians, correction officers, emergency dispatch 
        officers, and emergency service providers who have tragically lost their 
        lives in the line of duty protecting and serving their communities, 
        endure hardships and challenges while upholding the legacy of their 
        fallen heroes; and
Whereas nonprofits throughout the United States provide resources and support 
        Gold Shield Families as an expression of the Nation's enduring gratitude 
        and appreciation for their tremendous contributions and sacrifices: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That--
            (1) local communities throughout the United States support 
        nonprofits that provide resources and aid Gold Shield Families 
        during their time of hardship and grief; and
            (2) Gold Shield Families utilize these resources as they 
        process their immeasurable sacrifice.
                                 <all>
