On May 13, Kustoff shared his participation in a tribute at the U.S. Capitol alongside Speaker Johnson: “This evening, I joined @SpeakerJohnson on the steps of the U.S. Capitol to pay tribute to the brave men and women who gave their lives in the line of duty. We are reminded of the courage and sacrifice of our law enforcement officers and their families.”
