Law

Congress passed a resolution to allow the 44th Annual National Peace Officers Memorial Service to take place on the U.S. Capitol grounds. The event is meant to honor law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty during 2024.
The memorial service is set for May 15, 2025, with a special bagpipe and honor guard performance happening on May 14. These events are open to everyone, and there is no charge to attend.
The National Fraternal Order of Police is responsible for all the costs of the events, including setting up stages and sound systems. The Capitol Police and other officials will oversee the events to make sure they are safe and do not interrupt work in Congress.
