Senate Passes Tuberville-backed Resolution for National Police Week

May 14, 2025 - WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) joined 81 Senate colleagues in introducing a resolution to designate May 11-17, 2025, as National Police Week. The resolution also honors 234 fallen officers, including four from Alabama: Jesse Cooper of Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, Timothy W. Johns of Tuscaloosa County Sheriff's Office, Jermyius Young of Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, and John R. McCrary of Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office and Rogersville Police Office.

"Every day, our law enforcement officers put on their uniforms and leave their homes not knowing if they'll return," said Senator Tuberville. "Sadly, some of them have made the ultimate sacrifice to keep our communities safe. This resolution is just a small token of our appreciation for all our brave police officers. I will continue to back the men and women in blue and champion pro-police policies here in the Senate."
