This Joint Resolution officially designates the month of May each year as "Law Enforcement and Correctional Police Officer Appreciation Month" in New Jersey, urging public officials and residents to participate in appropriate activities and programs to honor these officers. The resolution acknowledges the dangerous and challenging nature of their work, highlighting their service, valor, and the sacrifices they and their families make, especially in light of recent national negativity towards law enforcement, with the intent of ensuring citizens recognize and show gratitude for these dedicated individuals who protect the community and manage those within the criminal justice system.
