Mr. VINDMAN. Mr. Speaker, today during National Police Week, I rise to commend the bravery of law enforcement officers across Virginia's Seventh Congressional District.

In early April, tragedy struck Spotsylvania County when a mass shooting left three people sadly deceased and three others injured. Law enforcement officers from Spotsylvania County and the city of Fredericksburg swiftly answered the call and put their lives on the line to protect their neighbors.

As a former prosecutor and Army veteran, I understand the mission that our men and women in uniform take on every day. They serve knowing that their work is bigger than any one person. It is about protecting our communities and upholding the law for our families and loved ones.

Mr. Speaker, today, I thank the brave law enforcement officers of Spotsylvania and Fredericksburg and all officers serving across the 11 counties of Virginia's Seventh Congressional District. Their service and sacrifice is deeply valued.
