Washington, D.C. — Florida Congressman Daniel Webster, R-Clermont, voted to pass several pieces of legislation this week supporting America’s law enforcement officials.
 
“The men and women of law enforcement embody the highest ideals of service, selflessly answering the call to protect and defend our communities,” said Rep. Webster. “During this National Police Week, I voted to pass legislation that builds on my longstanding support for our police. I will always back the blue and will continue to support efforts that ensure our nation’s law enforcement have the training, tools, and resources necessary to uphold the rule of law and keep our communities safe.”
 
Rep. Webster voted to pass the following bills in the House of Representatives this week:
 
  • H.R 2240, the Improving Law Enforcement Officer Safety and Wellness Though Data Act – Requires the Attorney General to collect and share data on violent attacks against law enforcement and provide recommendations on how to prevent further attacks on officers.

  • H.R. 2243, the Law Enforcement Officer Safety Reform Act (LEOSA) – Expands the LEOSA exemption to allow law enforcement officers to conceal carry firearms on state, local, and private property that is otherwise open to the public, and reforms qualification standards for law enforcement officers to conceal carry.

  • H.R. 2255, the Federal Law Enforcement Officer Service Weapon Purchase Act of 2025 – Allows Federal law enforcement officers that are in good standing to purchase retired service weapons that would otherwise be destroyed.
