SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 23
(By Senators Foster, Unger, Stollings, Minard, Prezioso, Plymale,
Edgell, McCabe, Jenkins, Kessler and McKenzie)
Designating February 25, 2008, as "Law Enforcement Appreciation
Day".
Whereas, West Virginia has one of the lowest crime rates in
the United States; and
Whereas, It is fitting and proper that law enforcement
officers be commended, encouraged and honored for their
contributions that have resulted in these statistics; and
Whereas, Law enforcement officers give generously of
themselves both in spirit and deed so others might share in the joy
of living in a free and democratic society; and
Whereas, Law enforcement officers have the desire to help
their fellow citizens in times of need, no matter how dangerous or
difficult the situation; and
Whereas, We honor and appreciate the outstanding law
enforcement officers who have distinguished themselves with
unselfish and exemplary service to the community and its citizens;
therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate:
That the Senate hereby designates February 25, 2008, as "Law
Enforcement Appreciation Day"; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Senate is proud of the men and
women who daily put their lives on the line and who uphold the
creed "To protect and serve"; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Clerk is hereby directed to forward
a copy of this resolution to the appropriate representatives of law
enforcement.
