Governor Asa HutchinsonI’m honored to proclaim this National Police Week and to designate May 15th Peace Officers Memorial Day. Let us remember the service and sacrifice of those who have lost their lives and those who continue to put their lives on the line for our communities. May God bless you all.

Governor GREG ABBOTT
I encourage everyone to join me in honoring the memories of our fellow Texans who have laid down their lives for the benefit of others. All of Texas joins me in thanking the members of law enforcement and their families for their service and sacrifice in keeping Texas safe. As we pay tribute, let us also recognize those who still serve. We owe these courageous men and women an inestimable debt of gratitude for their outstanding service to our state.
