HONORING ALABAMA'S LAW ENFORCEMENT
______
HON. MIKE ROGERS
of alabama
in the house of representatives
Monday, February 7, 2022
Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I rise today in strong support of our local law enforcement.
Across our country, police officers are under fire. They are being killed, attacked and targeted.
These brave men and women who serve their local communities help keep us safe, but the liberals continue to push to defund the police.
I am sick of it.
President Biden and the left's anti-police policies have led to a crimewave across our nation. Last October; three Alabama police officers were shot in less than 24 hours. Last May, Alabama officers were injured in a shooting. And last week, an Opelika Police officer was hit by a fleeing suspect.
We are a country of law and order and I implore my colleagues to stand up for those who protect us and back the blue.
