EXCLUSIVE: Trump Hosts Law Enforcement Leaders at White House for Police Week Dinner

President Donald Trump is hosting members of major law enforcement organizations at his “Rose Garden Club” this evening in honor of Police Week and those fallen in the line of duty, the Daily Caller learned.

Trump is expected to give remarks and be joined by several notable members of his administration, including: Vice President JD Vance, Border Czar Tom Homan, War Secretary Pete Hegseth, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, FBI Director Kash Patel and Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche.

The National Association of Police Organizations (NAPO), the National Sheriffs’ Association, the D.C. Police Union and the National Border Patrol Council are among the organizations that are expected to attend the dinner. The NAPO represents at least 1,000 police units and associations and has sworn in 241,000 law enforcement officers.

“The men and women of law enforcement are American heroes who risk their own lives to keep our communities safe. They have never had a stronger champion than President Trump and his Administration,” Abigail Jackson, a White House spokeswoman, told the Caller about the dinner. “The White House is looking forward to honoring these heroes and celebrating all they do for our country as we kick off Police Week.”

National Police Week 2026 occurs from May 10-16 and includes many big events in Washington, D.C. The week aims to honor those who have fallen in the line of duty, and typically draws thousands to the nation’s capital for the event.

On May 13th, officers will participate in a candlelight vigil on Wednesday.

The National Fraternal Order of Police, which will be attending Trump’s dinner, organizes the Peace Officers Memorial Day Service during Police Week, according to the event website.
