Florida Congressman Daniel Webster, R-Clermont, expressed his unwavering support for law enforcement officials during National Police Week. This week, he voted to pass several pieces of legislation that underscore his longstanding commitment to the police force.
"The men and women in blue who courageously answer the call to protect and serve our communities deserve our respect and confidence," said Rep. Webster. "In honor of National Police Week, I voted to pass a slate of bills that continue my longstanding support for our police. I will always back the blue and will continue to support measures that ensure our police officers have the training, tools, resources, and support needed to keep our neighborhoods and communities safe."
The legislations Rep. Webster voted for in the House of Representatives this week include:
H.Res. 1213 – A resolution condemning violence towards law enforcement officers amidst calls to “defund the police” and expressing support for law enforcement officials.
H.R. 7581, the Improving Law Enforcement Officers Safety and Wellness Through Data Act – This act requires the Attorney General to study and share information about the rise in violent attacks against law enforcement and share recommendations on how to prevent further attacks on officers.
H.R. 354, the Law Enforcement Officer Safety Reform Act (LEOSA) – This act expands the LEOSA exemption allowing law enforcement officers to conceal carry firearms on state, local, and private property open to the public. It also reforms qualification standards for law enforcement officers' concealed carry.
H.R. 7530, the DC CRIMES Act of 2024 – This act aims at combating crime by lowering D.C.’s definition of “youth” from 25 to 18 years old and prohibits the D.C. Council from enacting soft-on-crime sentencing policies.
