          DIGEST:          This resolution proclaims October 17, 2015, as  
          California Firefighters Memorial Day.
          ANALYSIS:   This resolution makes the following legislative  
          findings:


          1)The California Firefighters Memorial, located on the grounds  
            of the State Capitol, serves to honor and commemorate  
            California firefighters who unwaveringly serve our great state  
            with pride, courage, and honor.


          2)The California Firefighters Memorial is also a symbol of  
            gratitude and appreciation to the men and women of the fire  
            service who put their lives on the line each day to protect  
            the people, property, and beauty of California.


          3)Each of the over 1,250 names engraved on the brushed limestone  
            walls of the California Firefighters Memorial is a tribute to  
            the finest and bravest of our state who have made the ultimate  
            sacrifice as firefighters.

                                                                     Page  2





          4)On October 17, 2015, firefighters and their families from  
            throughout the state will gather in Sacramento with their  
            fellow Californians for the 2015 California Firefighters  
            Memorial Ceremony to honor the men and women of the fire  
            service who have selflessly given their lives to protect  
            California.


          This resolution proclaims October 17, 2015, as Firefighters  
          Memorial Day, and urges Californians to remember firefighters  
          who have fallen in the line of duty and to express their  
          appreciation to those firefighters who continue to protect us.
