[ARCHIVED] Expression of gratitude on National First Responders Day

National First Responders Day_102819

Of course, we are grateful year-round, but today we pause to say thank you. We appreciate the men and women who run toward crisis, not away. Thank you for protecting our peace of mind and our safety.

Today is National First Responders Day. It’s a new holiday that was created by resolution in the U.S. Senate, designating October 28, 2019, as “Honoring the Nation’s First Responders Day.”

Of course, we are grateful year-round, but today we pause to say thank you. We appreciate the men and women who run toward crisis, not away. Thank you for protecting our peace of mind and our safety. 

An estimated 4.6 million career and volunteer firefighters, police, emergency medical technicians, and paramedic workers serve communities all across the nation. Because of the commitment shown by our first responders, neighborhoods are stronger, safer, and ultimately, more connected.
