Napolitano’s Statement on National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day

(Washington, DC) Today, Rep. Grace F. Napolitano (D-El Monte) marked National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, releasing the following statement:

“Today we thank all the law enforcement officers in our San Gabriel Valley and across this country who put their lives on the line each day to serve and protect us. These heroes and their families deserve our support and appreciation, which is why I am proud to join my Law Enforcement Caucus colleagues in displaying a blue light in the window of my DC office today. Let us all take a moment to show our gratitude for the brave men and women who work every day to make our neighborhoods safer.”

Napolitano continues to work closely with San Gabriel Valley police departments on several important issues, including establishing a canine training facility in West Covina to service the San Gabriel Valley and partnering with LA County mental health providers to promote crisis intervention training for police officers. She also hosts an annual Congressional Prayer Breakfast as a tribute to local police, fire, and military personnel and their families. Napolitano is a member of the Congressional Law Enforcement Caucus.
