Today is National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day – an opportunity to thank the men and women who keep everyone safe.
Nebraska U-S Senator Deb Fischer says “it’s particularly important that we use this special day to celebrate our law enforcement officers because in some parts of the country their life-saving work is undervalued and even demonized.
Fischer says law enforcement’s life-saving work was on full display during the recent intense winter storms in Nebraska.
Law enforcement responded to hundreds of incidents, and while most people gathered with relatives for the holiday, many officers spent Christmas Day away from their families on the road answering the call of duty.
