Whereas National Police Week, observed each year in the week containing May 15, 
        is the most appropriate time to honor Concerns of Police Survivors: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) recognizes and thanks Concerns of Police Survivors for 
        assisting in the rebuilding of the lives of family members of 
        law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty across the 
        United States;
            (2) honors Concerns of Police Survivors and recognizes the 
        organization as it begins its 25th year of service to the 
        families of the fallen heroes of the Nation;
            (3) urges the people of the United States to join with the 
        Senate in thanking Concerns of Police Survivors; and
            (4) recognizes with great appreciation the sacrifices made
