The number of police officers killed in the line of duty in the United States has decreased by 53% in the first half of 2025 compared to the previous year, according to a mid-year report. This decline is being attributed to a shift away from anti-police culture, which supporters credit to policies and influence associated with former President Donald Trump. The report also notes that during the Biden-Harris administration, more law enforcement officers were shot and killed than under any other administration in American history. Law enforcement representatives have acknowledged the reduction in fatalities as positive news and emphasize the importance of continuing efforts to further decrease deaths among police officers.
