Governor Abbott Delivers Remarks To The Sheriffs' Association Of Texas
Governor Greg Abbott today delivered remarks at the 139th annual Sheriffs' Association Training Conference and Expo in Grapevine, Texas. In his speech, the Governor outlined legislation passed during the 85th legislative session to further protect and honor Texas peace officers, including the designation of July 7th as Fallen Law Enforcement Officer Day, making it a hate crime to target a peace officer because of the uniform they wear, and establishing a $25 million grant program for rifle-resistant body armor.
