Establishes a Medal of Sacrifice to honor law enforcement and government employees killed in service.
The problem
Law enforcement and federal employees who die performing their duties lack a formal national recognition mechanism to honor their sacrifice and service.
The proposal
Creates the Medal of Sacrifice award to recognize and commemorate federal employees and law enforcement officers who die in the line of duty.
The impact
Honors deceased federal workers and law enforcement; provides recognition to families; establishes formal memorial process for government agencies.
Recognizes the sacrifice of law enforcement and federal employees who died serving their country. Provides formal national acknowledgment that respects their service and commitment to public safety.
Gives grieving families official recognition of their loved one's sacrifice. Creates a meaningful tribute that honors their memory and contributions.
Recognizes the dangers and importance of law enforcement work. May improve morale by showing that employee sacrifice is officially valued and remembered.
The bill provides limited details on medal design, selection process, or administration. Without specifics, implementation could be inconsistent or confusing.
Creating a new federal award program requires staff, funding, and ongoing management. Actual costs are unknown but represent new government spending.
A medal, while meaningful symbolically, does not provide financial support to families or directly improve workplace safety. It is primarily ceremonial.

Individual contributions, grouped by employer · FEC
Where their individual donors work · 2026 cycle
Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
