 RESOLUTION

Recognizing August 5, National Night Out, the national coming together 
 of Americans all over the Nation to unite and promote public safety.

Whereas, on the first Tuesday of August, the Nation will observe National Night 
 Out, a day to cultivate a better relationship between residents of a 
 community and their local law enforcement, and to promote public safety;
Whereas the participation in National Night Out by over 38,000,000 neighbors in 
 over 17,000 communities across the United States for over 40 years is 
 inspiring;
Whereas the relationship between local law enforcement and the residents which 
 they are sworn to protect is important in creating a true sense of 
 community;
Whereas general awareness of public safety has improved, because of the 
 continued efforts of communities to meet their law enforcement officers 
 and participate in National Night Out activities; and
Whereas National Night Out not only includes Americans on the mainland, but 
 includes those in United States territories and military bases to ensure 
 all are included in the effort of community building and public safety 
 awareness: Now, therefore, be it
 Resolved, That the House of Representatives--

    (1) encourages law enforcement departments to use National 
 Night Out to improve relationships with the communities they 
 serve;

    (2) encourages public safety departments to inform 
 communities--
        (A) how to most effectively contact their 911 
 responders and emergency service providers; and
        (B) how they carry out their duties; and

    (3) recognizes the impact that has been made for over 40 
 years in communities all over the United States of America by 
 National Night Out in creating a more united country by 
 fostering relationships between residents, neighbors, and local 
 law enforcement, and promoting public safety awareness.
