FBI Agents Association Statement on House Resolution in Honor of Federal Law Enforcement Agents

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FBI Agents Association President Konrad Motyka issued the following statement on the introduction by Rep. Robert Turner in the House of Representative of House Resolution 776 that “recognizes the importance of Federal law enforcement officers to United States national security and counter-terrorism efforts”:

“dignitary protection, criminal investigation, homeland security, border security, intelligence gathering, and fighting waste, fraud, and abuse.”

We remember the victims of the 9-11 terrorist attacks and their families, the local, state and federal first responders whose bravery on that day will never be forgotten, and the military and law enforcement officials who are on the frontlines of the ongoing fight against terrorism. The Resolution recognizes the continuing sacrifices that federal law enforcement officers and their families make to protect our country and its citizens, and the important roles they play in “dignitary protection, criminal investigation, homeland security, border security, intelligence gathering, and fighting waste, fraud, and abuse.” We greatly appreciate Rep. Turner’s introduction of this Resolution and his recognition of the brave women and men who risk their lives to protect our country every day.
