We cannot have freedom without safety, and we cannot have safety without the men and women willing to defend it—it’s just that simple. As we mark National Police Week, I’m committed to honoring Americans who put on the uniform and run into danger that many would run from.
Across our Treasure Coast communities, men and women leave home every morning not knowing if they’ll come back to their families that night. They put their safety on the line to protect ours, and while they deserve more than a week, this opportunity to say “thank you” matters.
Safe neighborhoods rely on the courage and heroism of our police and we need to make sure they are well-equipped to do the job. I’ll keep working to make sure our officers in Martin, St. Lucie, and Palm Beach Counties have the resources, the respect, and the backing they need to protect us.
To every law enforcement officer across our great nation, thank you.
