                          NATIONAL POLICE WEEK

  (Mr. WILLIAMS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. WILLIAMS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this time to 
recognize National Police Week, as well as National Peace Officers 
Memorial Day.
  This week allows us to take the time to honor local, State, and 
Federal officers who have died or have been disabled in the line of 
duty. This week is an opportunity to pay tribute to the important men 
and women who have served our country and put our lives in front of 
their own.
  In 2017, 129 officers made the ultimate sacrifice. Of that, one of 
them lived in the 25th District of Texas that I represent.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like everyone to know the name of Deputy Mark 
Gregory Deibold of the Tarrant County Constable's Office, Precinct 5. 
Mark's watch ended on Thursday, September 7, 2017. This hero served his 
community, State, and country well, and he is more than deserving of 
our praise and recognition.
  Thank you for your service, Mark.
  May God bless this hero's family.
  God bless the United States of America.
  In God We Trust.
