SR 114 — Commend the pilot and crew of the medical helicopter who were lost in the line of duty after transporting a patient

Summary / Main purpose

SR 114 is a ceremonial resolution that honors and commends a medical helicopter pilot and crew who were killed in the line of duty while transporting a patient. The resolution expresses the legislature’s sympathy and respect for the service and sacrifice of the crew, recognizes their professional commitment to emergency medical transport, and directs the Senate Clerk to send copies of the resolution to appropriate family members and public officials.

Key provisions

  • Expresses formal commendation and respect for the pilot and crew for their service and sacrifice while performing medical transport duties.
  • Extends condolences to the families, colleagues, and communities affected by the loss.
  • Typically directs the Clerk of the Senate (or equivalent officer) to send certified copies of the resolution to the deceased crew members’ families and to designated state officials or agencies (emergency medical services, relevant departments, and the Governor).
  • Does not create new law, appropriate funds, or modify policy — it is a nonbinding, honorary statement.

Who is affected

  • Primary: the families of the deceased pilot and crew and their immediate communities.
  • Secondary: the medical transport and emergency medical services (EMS) community, first-responder organizations, and state/local officials who oversee public safety and EMS operations.
