Public Safety: A Safe City and a Secure Nation's Capital
Our citizens and the nation are entitled to a capital city that is both safe and secure. Residents, businesses and all who visit the district of Columbia must know and feel -- as they walk the streets, as they enjoy their neighborhoods, as they gather in their homes -- that they, their families and friends are safe. They must feel secure in their daily activities, and have confidence in the efficiency of emergency responders and in the District's plans for emergency action in the aftermath of catastrophic occurrences.
