GLENN NYE STATEMENT IN COMMEMORATION OF POLICE WEEK

Virginia Beach, VA – Glenn Nye, Democratic Nominee for Congress in Virginia's Second District, today released the following statement in commemoration of National Police Week:

"Yesterday, I attended dignified ceremonies in Norfolk and Virginia Beach commemorating fallen law enforcement officers. These ceremonies provided a moment of reflection on the sacrifices the men and women of our police forces make for us every day. They put their lives on the line to keep us safe in our neighborhoods. Having served overseas in many countries that do not have functioning first responder systems, I realized how easy it can be to take for granted the vital service our officers provide. When we call for help, they respond.

Yesterday was the start of national police week. I hope you will take a moment this week to remember our fallen police officers, and when you see officers of the peace please remember to thank them for their service."
