                    RECOGNIZING NATIONAL POLICE WEEK

  (Ms. WILD asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. WILD. Madam Speaker, this week, my community and communities 
across our Nation are paying tribute to law enforcement officers who 
made the ultimate sacrifices in our defense.
  National Police Week is a moment to reflect on those sacrifices and 
the men and women who put their lives on the line for ours.
  It is a moment to recognize the families who live with this 
immeasurable sacrifice, and it is a moment to reaffirm our commitment 
to working with local and State leaders to support these families.
  We owe it to the memory of fallen officers and to the majority of men 
and women in uniform who carry out their responsibilities with skill 
and professionalism every day to make sure that officers are safe.
  We all need to do our part to ensure that the communities they serve 
are safe as well.
  In this same spirit of progress, let's commit to working to shape a 
more secure future for officers and for the communities they serve.
