This year, the names of 345 law enforcement officers — 148 who died in the line of duty in 2024 and 197 who died in previous years — have been added to the sacred walls of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Tonight, at our nation’s capital, tens of thousands of people from across the country and around the world will gather on the National Mall to honor these heroes as their names are read aloud during the 37th annual Candlelight Vigil.

For those unable to attend in person but who wish to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice, the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund will host a livestream of the event at 5 p.m. PST/8 p.m. EST on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ALpizgnNz8 and on Facebook at Facebook.com/NLEOMF.

We will never forget.

Here’s a snapshot from last Friday’s Police vs. Fire team dinner! Our two teams broke bread and enjoyed a great family dinner before the big game. This annual charity fundraiser is truly a community first responder event. There are police and corrections officers from Las Vegas Metro as well as the Clark County School District Police Department. The Fire Department team has firefighters from the Clark County Fire Department, Las Vegas Fire Department, Henderson Fire Department and Mesquite Fire Department.

As proud longstanding members of National Association of Police Organizations (NAPO) we stand with our brothers and sisters remembering our heroes who sacrificed so much for those they do not know.

During National Police Week, May 11–17, the LVPPA stands with the law enforcement profession to honor our brothers and sisters who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty in 2024 and previous years. These courageous officers ran toward danger to protect their communities from those intent on causing harm and disorder. We will never forget how these brave heroes stood up against evil to fulfill their duty to protect and serve others.
