SPECIAL DAY/WEEK/MONTH: Recognizes May 15, 2024, as Peace Officer Memorial Day and May 12 - 18, 2024 as Police Week at the Louisiana State Capitol.
This bill designates May 15, 2024, as Peace Officer Memorial Day and May 12 to 18, 2024, as Police Week specifically at the Louisiana State Capitol. The resolution formally recognizes the service and sacrifice of law enforcement officers, including those who have died in the line of duty, and calls for U.S. flags to be flown at half-staff on Memorial Day. It does not change any laws or alter government operations but serves as a symbolic gesture of gratitude toward the state's police force.
