Greetings,

Each year, NAPSO/CWA Local 9110 gains more political strength to effectively lobby on behalf of our growing membership throughout the State.  In 2015, after enduring one of the worst legislative sessions this State has ever seen, and after watching as our colleagues in the law enforcement community were ineffective in handling some of the key legislative issues that targeted their members and ours, NAPSO was at the forefront of creating a statewide law enforcement coalition to finally speak with one voice at the Nevada Legislature and throughout the cities and counties of our great State.  We are now part of the Nevada Law Enforcement Coalition and we bring together all of the major law enforcement Associations in Nevada. 

Partisan and non-partisan candidates will seek our coalition's endorsements now and in the coming years.  NAPSO's power extends not just to Carson City, but to our U.S. Congress as well.  NAPSO's leadership in the coalition's endorsement process has been rewarding and has brought together law enforcement's political lobbyists like never before.  We have discarded mere political party affiliations as the means to endorse a candidate.  Rather, we will endeavor to select candidates to receive our endorsements based on the content of their character, their desire to understand the issues that face our members, and their willingness to fight for the rights of the hard working men and women of law enforcement.
