| All Gave Some - Some Gave All - A Time Of Remembrance |
Sunday, May 13th marks the beginning of “Police Week 2012”. It is a time to reflect and to honor those who have sacrificed so much to protect the communities they serve. Many of us have lost someone close to us in this profession. Yet we move on in their honor and in our commitment to our profession and the citizens we serve. It is who we are and what we do.

| Colorado FOP President Frank Gale Testifies in US Senate Hearing on Profiling |
U.S. senators heard contentious testimony on the state of racial profiling in America, the first such hearings since Sept. 11, 2001.
The hearing happened just days after an affidavit from the Florida State Attorney's Office stated that 17-year-old Trayvon Martin was "profiled" by 28-year-old George Zimmerman before the neighborhood watch captain killed him.

The Colorado FOP is extremely pleased with the verdict in this significant case against CSP Trooper Lawyer. The decision by a west slope Grand Jury and Mesa County District Attorney to charge criminally in this case is disturbing, and had the potential to change precedent on how officer involved shootings may be handled in the future.

| Politics & The FOP |
One of the most controversial and least understood aspects of our political action and legislative programs are the endorsements that the FOP makes at the local, state and national levels of the organization. First and foremost members need to understand the FOP is not a Democrat or Republican affiliated organization.

Across the country special interest groups are using Public Employees as scapegoats for the financial problems caused by politicians. These politicians are endangering the public in order to further their own agenda to silence public employee unions and gut public services. The safety of every citizen of the United States is threatened as Public Safety jobs are eliminated and the services and protections that these departments offer the public are scaled back to the bare bones. We cannot continue to allow the politicians that we entrust to run our government destroy the safety of our communities.
In order to arm you with the facts of what is happening to our country, The National Fraternal Order of Police has created a website as a place to share news of what these groups are doing to harm our public employees and the safety of our communities. Click on the poster above to see what is happening in your state and what you can do to help in this fight to Save Public Safety.
