Expressing support for local law enforcement officers and condemning efforts to defund local law enforcement agencies.
HCONRES 106 is a symbolic concurrent resolution expressing congressional support for local law enforcement officers and condemning efforts to defund police agencies. It does not create new law or policy but formally recognizes officers' dedication to public safety, extends gratitude to them and their families, and specifically condemns calls to "defund, disband, dismantle, or abolish" police. The resolution directly addresses local law enforcement officers and their communities, emphasizing their role in protecting public safety and upholding the rule of law. Introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on May 6, 2024, it was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. As a non-binding statement, it reflects congressional sentiment but does not alter funding or operational authority for law enforcement.
