To date, FRC supporters have collected over 5,500 signatures in support of a National First Responder Appreciation Day that honors all first responders for their contributions, sacrifices and dedication to public service. I want to give a special thanks to Ann Murphy from Scotland, Georgia for not only signing the petition but getting her friends, family members and local first responders to support this important cause.
Ann answered the call to get others in her community involved and signed up
200 of her friends and neighbors. Thanks for your amazing efforts, Ann!
It is because of the groundswell of support we've received from thousands of concerned citizens like Ann that enabled us to get the Senate to pass
S.Res.215 - a resolution to make September 25th National First Responder Appreciation Day.Our goal now is to get the House of Representatives to pass a similar resolution, and to do that we're going to need your help. Here's what you can do: 1. If you haven't done so already, sign the petition!
2. Contribute a few bucks so we can keep the campaign alive!
3. Tell as many people as you know that if catfish deserve a national day of recognition, then so do the brave men and women who protect our communities!
4. Spread the word by adding us as your friend on your MySpace or Facebook!
Join us in giving our first responders the national day of appreciation that they deserve!
