           RECOGNIZING CITRUS COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. DANIEL WEBSTER

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, May 17, 2017

  Mr. WEBSTER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize Citrus 
County Sheriff Mike Prendergast and the law enforcement officers who 
keep Citrus County safe every single day.
  This week marks the annual observance of Police Week. Though we set 
aside one week a year to honor law enforcement, I encourage all 
Americans to join me not only this week, but every day, in recognizing 
the honor, courage, and commitment of America's law enforcement.
  Our law enforcement are heroes in the community. They keep us safe, 
and are willing to put their lives on the line every day in the course 
of their duties. It is impossible to fully express our gratitude or 
adequately recognize the professionalism of the men and women who 
voluntarily put their lives on the line for our safety and security. It 
is with deep respect that we pause today to honor the memory of the 
heroes who gave the last full measure of devotion and made the ultimate 
sacrifice.
  I want to extend my sincere appreciation to Citrus County Sheriff 
Mike Prendergast and the law enforcement officers who bravely and 
selflessly serve Citrus County. It is an honor to recognize them and 
all men and women in law enforcement.
