H. Res. 363

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                          May 15, 2023.
Whereas Federal, State, local, and Tribal police officers, sheriffs, and other 
        law enforcement officers across the United States serve with valor, 
        dignity, and integrity;
Whereas law enforcement officers are charged with--

    (1) pursuing justice for all individuals; and

    (2) performing the duties of a law enforcement officer with fidelity to 
the constitutional and civil rights of the public the officers serve;

Whereas law enforcement officers swear an oath to uphold the public trust even 
        though, through the performance of the duties of a law enforcement 
        officer, the officers may become targets for senseless acts of violence;
Whereas, in 1962, President John Fitzgerald Kennedy signed Public Law 87-726 (36 
        U.S.C. 136) (referred to in this preamble as the ``Joint Resolution''), 
        which authorizes the President to proclaim May 15 of every year as 
        ``Peace Officers Memorial Day'' in honor of the Federal, State, and 
        local officers who have been killed, disabled, or otherwise injured in 
        the line of duty;
Whereas the Joint Resolution also authorizes the President to designate the week 
        in which Peace Officers Memorial Day falls as ``National Police Week'';
Whereas the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, dedicated on October 15, 
        1991, is the national monument to honor those law enforcement officers 
        who have died in the line of duty; and
Whereas Peace Officers Memorial Day, 2023, honors the 556 law enforcement 
        officers killed in the line of duty and whose stories were recovered 
        during 2022, including--
