Washington, DC – On May 15, Congressman John Joyce, M.D. (PA-13), spoke on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives to recognize National Police Week and to thank the law enforcement officers of Pennsylvania’s 13th Congressional District for their tireless work to serve our communities.
“This week, please join me in praying for the men and women who wear a badge,” “Let’s recommit ourselves to standing with our law enforcement officers. Let’s pledge to never defund the police.”
Watch Congressman Joyce’s speech here.
During National Police Week, the U.S. House of Representatives will consider H.Con.Res.40, expressing support for local law enforcement officers and condemning efforts to defund or dismantle local law enforcement agencies, and H.R. 2494, the POLICE Act of 2023, which would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to explicitly state that assaulting a law enforcement officer is a deportable offense.
