Proclamation 10927 of May 1, 2025
National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend,
2025
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
Day and night, firefighters are on the front lines,
rushing into danger and risking their lives to protect
fellow citizens. Tragically, not every hero makes it
home. The National Fallen Firefighters Memorial
Weekend, held in Emmitsburg, Maryland, commemorates the
volunteer and professional firefighters who, over the
past year, have sacrificed their lives in the line of
duty.
Thousands will gather to honor the lives and legacies
of the fallen, to support the Fire Hero Families, to
grieve and share memories, and to strengthen bonds
between those who uniquely understand both the enduring
pride and the profound loss of their loved ones. Across
the country, brave men and women demonstrate heroism
each day, willingly placing themselves in harm's way
for the benefit of others. We are indebted to every
American who chooses this noble profession--this solemn
calling--in spite of the inherent risks.
There are pivotal moments in American history in which
the awe-inspiring bravery and professionalism of
firefighters stand forever imprinted on our memory. On
September 11, 2001, firefighters rushed into the smoke
and flames of the twin towers following the horrific
terrorist attacks. In January of this year,
firefighters worked tirelessly to contain the fury of
the deadly and destructive wildfires that raged through
southern California. These phenomenal efforts make us
proud and grateful for those who stand in the gap for
our safety.
One firefighter will forever hold a profound place in
my life--Corey Comperatore, who lost his life shielding
his family from the barrage of assassin's bullets that
pierced the air during my rally last July in Butler,
Pennsylvania. His bravery and selflessness on that
fateful day exemplify the dedication and courage that
define America's cadre of firefighters.
The First Lady and I are grateful for the devotion of
all who serve their communities and our country in this
extraordinary way. Firefighters often enter our lives
only when something has gone catastrophically wrong,
yet they stand ready every day to protect our people
and communities. This National Fallen Firefighters
Memorial Weekend, we remember the American patriots who
gave their lives in service to others, and pray for the
courageous families who carry on in their absence.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority
vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States, do hereby proclaim May 3 through May 4,
2025, as National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend.
On Sunday, May 4, 2025, in accordance with Public Law
107-51, the flag of the United States will be flown at
half-staff at all Federal office buildings in honor of
the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Service.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
first day of May, in the year of our Lord two thousand
twenty-five, and of the Independence of the United
States of America the two hundred and forty-ninth.
(Presidential Sig.)
