Law Enforcement Officers Defense & Welfare Act Fact Page

WE BELIEVE IN SUPPORTING FAMILIES THAT HAVE GIVEN THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE. 

WE BELIEVE IN FAIR TRIALS AND PROTECTING OFFICERS FROM UNNECESSARY FINANCIAL AND MENTAL PAIN THAT COMES WITH FRIVOLOUS LAWSUITS. 

WE BELIEVE COP KILLERS SHOULD BE PUT AWAY FOR LIFE FOR THEIR CRIMES. 

 

That’s why we support the Law Enforcement Officers Welfare and Defense Act.

PODC LEODWA

The Law Enforcement Officers Welfare and Defense Act (LEODWA) would:

    • Make the death benefit for Law Enforcement Officers killed equal to that of a federal agent, US Marshal or any other member of federal law enforcement killed in the line of duty. 

 

    • Exempt officers from civil lawsuits that occur prior to a criminal trial if an officer is charged with a crime, preventing frivolous civil lawsuits until the Officer had his/her criminal trial.

 

    • Sentence those that intentionally kill a law enforcement official because of their duties or status as a public servant at least 20 years imprisonment, and up to life imprisonment or death 

Do You Support Our Police and Believe They Deserve Better Protections as They risk Their Lives for Our Safety?

If so, we need YOUR help!


The anti-police agenda is trying to drown out our voices, so we need to stand strong together to get this important legislation passed.

Will you sign our petition in support of this important legislation?
