  Honoring the New Jersey State Law Enforcement Officers Association.

Whereas more than 700,000 men and women across the Nation serve their fellow 
        citizens in their capacity as guardians of peace;
Whereas the law enforcement officers of New Jersey are recognized for their 
        dedication to promote, advance, and encourage cooperation among all law 
        enforcement officers;
Whereas law enforcement officers serve at great risk to their personal safety;
Whereas the citizens of New Jersey are indebted to their law enforcement 
        officers, who are willing to die to protect them and their families and 
        to risk all of their hopes and all of their dreams to ensure the safety 
        and well-being of New Jersey communities;
Whereas law enforcement officers of New Jersey have fallen in the line of duty, 
        and the thoughts and prayers of the House of Representatives and the 
        country remain with the families of these men and women;
Whereas the men and women in New Jersey's law enforcement community are on the 
        front line in our schools and on our streets, preserving the right of 
        our children to learn in schools that are free of violence and the right 
        of our citizens to safe communities; and
Whereas the members of the New Jersey State Law Enforcement Officers Association 
        are an integral part of our society, in whom we have instilled public 
        trust: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives recognizes the bravery 
and honor of the law enforcement officers of New Jersey, and the 
service of those officers to their communities.
                                 <all>
