WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is proud to | ||
recognize the Haslet Police Department on the occasion of Police | ||
Week in Texas; and | ||
WHEREAS, Peace officers are a select group of brave men and | ||
women who dedicate their lives to the protection and safekeeping | ||
of their fellow citizens and who serve our nation and this great | ||
state, regardless of dangerous circumstances and risks to their | ||
personal safety; and | ||
WHEREAS, As a tribute to these invaluable civil servants, | ||
the 87th United States Congress and President John F. Kennedy | ||
designated May 15 as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week of | ||
May 15 as Police Week; and | ||
WHEREAS, Proud traditions since 1962, these observances | ||
provide an excellent opportunity for citizens to reflect on the | ||
far-reaching responsibilities and challenges of law enforcement | ||
duty and to honor active peace officers, as well as those who have | ||
fallen, for their exceptional service and sacrifice; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th | ||
Legislature, hereby commend the members of the Haslet Police | ||
Department for their outstanding service to their community and | ||
their dedication to duty and encourage all Texans to pay tribute | ||
to their local police department in observance of Police Week in | ||
Texas; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
the Haslet Police Department as an expression of high regard from | ||
the Texas Senate. | ||
