I have a great deal of respect and admiration for the Association and what it stands for as well as for our officers who protect our citizens and their property under the laws of the state and nation.”
DISTRICT 9 “I would like to thank the members of the North Carolina Police Benevolent Association for their endorsement. Being selected to represent the full- and part-time and retired members of law enforcement from various federal, state, county and municipal law enforcement and correctional agencies means a great deal to me. I have been impressed with the professionalism of the NCPBA as they dealt with legislative matters, and I look forward to working with all of you in the future. My son is a New York City policeman, and his experiences have brought home to me the challenges that our law enforcement officers face. I want to thank all of you for your dedication and service. The NCPBA endorsement is especially meaningful to me.”
DISTRICT 10 “It was an honor to be interviewed, but to have been endorsed by the NCPBA selection board means a lot to me as a candidate.

DISTRICT 25 “The Police Benevolent Association offers great support to law enforcement and others involved in the criminal justice system. We see that here in Nash County as they work tirelessly to promote the safety and security of citizens throughout our community. The General Assembly recently passed legislation hailed as “the toughest sex offender and punishment law in the nation.” I proudly supported new legislation to close legal loopholes, impose strict monitoring, improve community notification, and mandate longer prison sentences for dangerous sexual predators. Public safety should be our government’s number one priority and I commend the Nash County Sheriff’s Department and the Rocky Police Department on the job they continue to do protecting and serving the needs of our community. It is a great honor to have the endorsement of the North Carolina Police Benevolent Association.”
