When it opens in 2009, the National Law Enforcement Museum will be the largest and most comprehensive museum of its kind in the world. Located in the heart of Washington, D. C. - just steps from the National Law enforcement Officers Memorial and surrounded by our country's most honored monuments to our heroes - the Museum will welcome millions of visitors from around the world.
The 90,000 square foot Museum will be a hands-on classroom - an inspiring glimpse behind the badge" - that teaches a story that has largely gone untold. All who come will be inspired and will leave with a better understanding that the peace officers who serve us are a vital and valued part of American society
For the law enforcement comminity, the congressionally authorized Museum will be the source of enourmous pride. This timely tribute will celebrate the story - past and present - of all the brave officers who serve and protect us every day. And for the first time anywhere, the work of America's 20,000 law enforcement agencies will be honored and recognized.
I hope that you would take a moment of your time to learn more about the museum and all that is planned for this magnificent tribute
