CONGRATULATING NASSAU COUNTY POLICE DEPARTMENT'S 100-YEAR ANNIVERSARY

Congressional Record, Volume 171 Issue 70 (Monday, April 28, 2025) [Congressional Record Volume 171, Number 70 (Monday, April 28, 2025)] [House] [Page H1672] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] CONGRATULATING NASSAU COUNTY POLICE DEPARTMENT'S 100-YEAR ANNIVERSARY (Ms. GILLEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.) Ms. GILLEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Nassau County Police Department on 100 years of brave and honorable service to the communities across New York's Fourth Congressional District. As the proud Representative of this district, I am honored to represent the more than 2,000 dedicated officers who put their lives on the line every day for the 1.3 million residents of Nassau County. In 1925, the NCPD was established with just 55 patrolmen. In the century since, the department has grown into one of the most respected and well-trained law enforcement agencies in America. Today, Nassau County law enforcement officers stand as a symbol of strength, courage, and service to Long Island. I also recognize the brave NCPD officers who have given all in the line of duty. They will not be forgotten. As we look ahead to the next 100 years of the NCPD, I will continue to work with Commissioner Ryder and our local partners to ensure that officers have the resources they need and the training they need to keep Long Islanders safe. I am proud to stand alongside Nassau County Police Department and congratulate them on 100 years of serving our community. ____________________
