           DIGEST  :    This resolution designates Monday, May 6, 2013, as  
          California Peace Officers Memorial Day, and urges all  
          Californians to use that day to honor California peace officers,  
          and recognize specified California peace officers who were  
          killed in defense of their communities.

           ANALYSIS  :    This resolution makes the following legislative  
          findings:

          1. Monday, May 6, 2013, is California Peace Officers' Memorial  
             Day, a day Californians observe in commemoration of those  
             noble officers who have tragically sacrificed their lives in  
             the line of duty.

          2. California peace officers have a job second in importance to  
             none, and it is a job that is as difficult and dangerous as  
             it is important.

          3. The peace officers of California have worked dutifully and  
             selflessly on behalf of the people of this great state,  
             regardless of the peril or hazard to themselves.

                                                                CONTINUED

                                                                     Page

          4. Lists the names of fallen peace officers to be recognized.

          This resolution designates Monday, May 6, 2013, as California  
          Peace Officers' Memorial Day, and urges all Californians to  
          remember those individuals who gave their lives for our safety  
          and expresses appreciation to those who continue to dedicate  
          themselves to making California a safer place in which to live  
          and raise our families.
