Without the men and women who protect, serve, and uphold the U.S. Constitution, we don’t have a country.
Valued Stand with Blue coalition member and founder of Support Our Shields nailed this sentiment in his new video, which he created specially for our citizen lobby event this National Police Week, May 11 through May 17.
Henry made this video to help promote the Police Officer Self-Defense Protection Act, a proposed bill drafted by the National Police Association that would provide federal protection for officers who use justified force in self-defense when facing a credible threat.

This is the Time for Taking Action, Not for Naysaying
Some people think what we’re doing is futile. While you’re free to suit yourself, I completely disagree with that premise. I’ve seen meaningful change occur when just a small collective took the time to care. And we can do it again!
Two days ago, in fact, we gained four new sponsors to the Protect and Serve Act of 2025 (S. 167 / H.R. 1551) in just one day.
This is happening because you’re taking the time to call and write your lawmakers.
Imagine what we could accomplish for law enforcement -and for our country- if we work together for this common goal.
We have a unique opportunity to get federal bills across the finish line that could very well change the dangerous trajectory policing has been on. The momentum is on our side.
Let’s not wake up with regrets, wishing we’d done more to support police officers and advance public safety. Help us make history.
Best.
For the Blue is a solutions-based initiative. I’m just an American patriot asking questions. I don’t work with any political party and I answer to nobody. For me, the health of the nation, due process (including for police officers), the rule of law, and respect for individual liberties, will always transcend party affiliation. I welcome your thoughts, even if you disagree; though personal attacks will be ignored. You can reach me at fortheblue@substack.com.
