OCTOBER 10, 2026, AS “NATIONAL COMMUNITY POLICING WEEK”
Mrs. SHAHEEN (for herself, Mr. Crapo, Ms. Hassan, Ms. Rosen, Mr. Peters, and Ms. Murkowski) submitted the following resolution; which was considered and agreed to:
S. Res. 895
Whereas police officers are indispensable members of the
community who put their lives on the line to protect others;
Whereas promoting strong relationships, founded in trust
and mutual respect, between law enforcement officers and the
communities they serve helps ensure the safe and effective
execution of the law;
Whereas relationships developed through community policing
help protect both law enforcement officers and civilians;
Whereas law enforcement officers and communities that work
together to address public safety concerns can create lasting
solutions to difficult challenges;
Whereas community policing has helped produce reductions in
both violent and property crime;
Whereas events in recent years have sparked a nationwide
call to improve the interactions between law enforcement
officers and the communities they serve;
Whereas community policing facilitates peaceful dialogue,
capable of fostering understanding and trust, between law
enforcement officers and civilians;
Whereas community policing informs the public about the
challenges that law enforcement officers face in executing
their duties and provides law enforcement officers insight
into the concerns of community members;
Whereas a long-term commitment to community policing is
necessary to eliminate the underlying causes of crime;
Whereas the advancement of community policing should be
supported to ensure that State and local law enforcement
agencies have necessary resources; and
Whereas community policing has been recognized as an
important tool for improving the relationship between law
enforcement officers and the communities they serve: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Senate—
(1) designates the week of October 4, 2026, through October
10, 2026, as “National Community Policing Week”; and
(2) supports community policing and encourages the people
of the United States, law enforcement agencies, and elected
officials to identify ways in which communities can improve
public safety, strengthen relationships, and build trust.
