                               RESOLUTION

  Recognizing August 4, 2026, 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.
