                    RECOGNIZING NATIONAL POLICE WEEK

  (Mr. GIANFORTE asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GIANFORTE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of National 
Police Week to honor the heroes who dedicate their lives to keep our 
communities safe and secure.
  Montana's courageous law enforcement officers are the epitome of 
selfless public service. Yesterday marked the 37th annual National 
Peace Officers' Memorial Service. It is only fitting that I honor one 
of Montana's fallen heroes.
  One year ago today, Broadwater County sheriff's deputy, Mason Moore, 
made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. A routine traffic stop 
turned into a pursuit of two violent suspects who callously took Deputy 
Moore's life.
  Deputy Moore was a dedicated husband and father of three, including 
twin teenage boys. His sacrifice to keep his community safe will not be 
forgotten.
  Today, Mr. Speaker, I honor the law enforcement community in Montana 
during National Police Week for their dedication, service, and 
sacrifice. I am grateful for those in uniform who serve and protect our 
communities and pray for their safety.
