YourVoice.Now Summary

Honors 363 law enforcement officers killed on duty — no money moves and no rules change.

The details

Most people would see no change in daily life. The House used this resolution to honor 363 law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty. Their stories came to light during 2025. Each officer is named in the text, one by one. The timing lines up with Peace Officers Memorial Day on May 15 and National Police Week. The House also said officers should have the equipment, training, and resources to stay safe. That is a statement of support, not a spending order. No money is set aside and no rules change. The House agreed to the resolution on May 13, 2026.

Congressional Summary
