WASHINGTON— In observance of Peace Officers Memorial Day, United States Senate FCU said it honored United States Capitol Police by hosting a special breakfast for the 1,250 officers on duty.
Established in 1828, the U.S. Capitol Police have served as guardians of the Capitol complex for nearly two centuries, “embodying a legacy of sacrifice and commitment,” the credit union said.
"Providing breakfast for the Capitol Police on this important day is more than a tradition; it's a reflection of the unique bond that exists between our organizations,” said Membership Development Officer Milton Aguilar-Bolanos. “Their commitment to safeguarding the Capitol and everyone within it has been unwavering. We are privileged to serve those who protect us, recognizing the sacrifices made by these officers daily."
Decades of Partnership
USSFCU said it has served the U.S. Capitol Police for decades and considers them, next to the U.S. Senate, one of its core member groups.
“USSFCU has more than 100 employee groups they have partnered with over the years but the relationship with the U.S. Capitol Police is a unique one,” the credit union said. “It goes beyond a business-to-business relationship. There is a level of trust and togetherness from both sides that you see more in community or family.”
