A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

 

Honoring Arizona's law enforcement officers and first responders.

 

 

(TEXT OF BILL BEGINS ON NEXT PAGE)

 

Whereas, police, fire and emergency services are fundamental cornerstones of civil society; and

Whereas, the safety and security of our state depend on the commitment, courage and selflessness of law enforcement officers and other first responders to put themselves in harm's way; and

Whereas, first responders risk their own safety and personal property in executing their duties to protect the public on a daily basis; and

Whereas, first responders are the first line of defense for the public against threats, both domestic and foreign; and

Whereas, first responders stand ready to come to the aid of United States citizens twenty-four hours a day; and

Whereas, law enforcement officers valiantly put themselves at perilous risk to keep the citizens of this state unscathed; and

Whereas, law enforcement officers and other first responders display immense analytical and critical-thinking skills every day, making split‑second, life-altering decisions in stressful and ever-changing environments; and

Whereas, first responders are a vital part of our communities, not only standing ready to deal with emergencies but also volunteering in our schools and community organizations; and

Whereas, both career and volunteer individuals from police, fire, emergency medical services, search and rescue and other organizations in the public safety sector come together as a collective to aid the public in the event of an emergency; and

Whereas, it is fitting that the people of Arizona honor, recognize and thank the first responders who serve and protect them and create safe communities that we all desire.

Therefore

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of Arizona, the Senate concurring:

That the Members of the Legislature honor and express their sincere gratitude to all law enforcement personnel and other first responders in the State of Arizona.
