Your local law enforcement officers face disasters every day and are the first on the scene to protect and save lives – often while risking their own. The Police and Troopers Relief Foundation (PTRF) is a special program within the Law Enforcement Officers Relief Fund (LEORF), established by the International Union of Police Associations. The PTRF/LEORF was created to provide specialized relief when, tragically, a law enforcement officer is killed in the line-of-duty or seriously injured in the line-of-duty, and when a law enforcement officer is faced with the horrible impact of a natural disaster.

This is a dangerous time for law enforcement officers in America.

Criminals have become martyrs.
The men and women in blue risk their lives every time they put on their badge. They run to danger when no one else will. They do it to protect and serve their fellow citizens, including those who demean their sacrifice.
I pray for their safety. But should they fall in the line of duty, I will be there to support to those loved ones they leave behind.
