NASHVILLE, Tenn. – In honor of First Responders Day, today, Oct. 28, country music superstar George Strait releases a powerful new music video for “The Weight of the Badge” as a tribute to first responders. The video focuses on stories and moments with some of our nation’s first responders and their families, giving some insight on what it means to live every day bearing the weight of the badge.
 
“The men and women in this music video are our friends and neighbors who carry the weight of the badge each day,” says Strait in the video. “Thank you. We appreciate you and the sacrifices you and your families make.”
 
The video made a special premiere last night at the First Responders Children’s Foundation 20th anniversary gala in New York City with many of the first responders featured in the video in attendance.
