H. CON. RES. 85 
Expressing the sense of the Congress that a postage stamp should be issued 
to honor law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty and that 
the Citizens’ Stamp Advisory Committee should recommend to the Post-
master General that such a stamp be issued. 
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
MARCH 3, 2005 
Mr. FILNER (for himself and Mr. ISSA) submitted the following concurrent 
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Government Reform 
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 
Expressing the sense of the Congress that a postage stamp 
should be issued to honor law enforcement officers killed 
in the line of duty and that the Citizens’ Stamp Advisory 
Committee should recommend to the Postmaster General 
that such a stamp be issued. 
Whereas more than 16,500 law enforcement officers have lost 
their lives in the line of duty in American communities 
since 1794, when records first started to be kept; 
Whereas 145 law enforcement officers lost their lives in the 
line of duty in American communities in 2003; 
Whereas 870,000 law enforcement officers risk danger to 
their lives and safety each day to serve and protect Amer-
ican communities;
•HCON 85 IH 
Whereas America’s law enforcement officers set an example 
of strength, courage, and valor that all Americans can 
admire and learn from; 
Whereas following September 11, 2001, on which day 72 law 
enforcement officers were killed while responding to at-
tacks perpetrated against this Nation, law enforcement 
has taken on the additional responsibility of protecting 
our homeland and the American people from the threat 
of terrorism; and 
Whereas issuing a postage stamp to honor the sacrifices of 
America’s law enforcement officers is proper and fitting: 
Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
concurring), That it is the sense of the Congress that— 
(1) a postage stamp should be issued to honor 
law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty; 
and 
(2) the Citizens’ Stamp Advisory Committee 
should recommend to the Postmaster General that 
such a stamp be issued.
