Offering Free Blue Ribbon for Residents to Display during Police Appreciation Week
Supervisor Joseph Saladino, Councilman Louis Imbroto, and Receiver of Taxes Jeffrey Pravato, joined by representatives of the Nassau County PBA, Detectives Association, Superior Officers Association, and Correction Officers Association officials.
In a powerful display of support for our law enforcement heroes, Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and the Town Board are launching a ‘Back the Blue’ Ribbon Campaign in recognition of National Police Week (May 10th – 16th). This nationwide observance honors the brave men and women in blue who risk their lives to protect our communities, as well as those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.
Free Blue Ribbons are available for residents to show their support for ‘Back the Blue’ by displaying blue ribbons on homes, businesses, storefronts, trees, and mailboxes.
“This campaign is a powerful way to say, ‘thank you’ to the courageous men and women in blue who put their lives on the line every day,” said Supervisor Saladino. “At a time when law enforcement officers continue to face unfair criticism and even calls to defund the police, it’s more important than ever to stand up and show our gratitude.”
“We are proud to live in the safest large suburban county in America, and that’s because of the dedication and sacrifice of our police officers,” added Councilman Imbroto. “When you call 911—whether for a burglary, a health emergency, or to protect your family—our officers are the ones who answer that call. Let’s show them we’ve got their backs.”
