WASHINGTON â€“ U.S. Senator Jerry Moran on Tuesday spoke on the Senate Floor to recognize National Police Week and remember Kansas law enforcement who passed away in 2022. National Police Week was established by President John F. Kennedy in 1962, and this year runs from May 14 – May 20.

“We honor the service and sacrifice of our nation's fallen law enforcement officers, remember those who have departed and acknowledge and express our gratitude for the sacrifices all law enforcement officers make every day they wear the badge,” said Sen. Moran. â€śDuring this week, and really every other week of the year, we should and we do honor those we have lost and remember the families they left behind.”

Sen. Moran recognized four members of Kansas law enforcement who passed away in 2022: Deputy Sheriff Sidnee Carter with the Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office, Sheriff Robert Craft with the Marion County Sheriff’s Office, Officer David Ingle with the Iola Police Department and Sergeant Stacy Murrow with the Linn County Sheriff’s Office.
