Whereas general awareness of public safety has improved, be-
cause 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 terri-
tories and military bases to ensure all are included in the
effort of community building and public safety awareness:

Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 1
(1) encourages law enforcement departments to 2
use National Night Out to improve relationships 3
with the communities they serve; 4
(2) encourages public safety departments to in-5
form communities— 6
(A) how to most effectively contact their 7
911 responders and emergency service pro-8
viders; and 9
(B) how they carry out their duties; and 10
(3) recognizes the impact that has been made 11
for over 39 years in communities all over the United 12
States of America by National Night Out in creating 13
a more united country by fostering relationships be-14
tween residents, neighbors, and local law enforce-15
ment, and promoting public safety awareness. 16
