In the past three days, fifteen police officers have been shot in America. This surge in violence against law enforcement underscores a critical issue, signaling a dire need for your support. It's time to voice your concerns to local elected officials, many of whom are not addressing this crisis effectively.

How many officers must be killed before our leaders take decisive action? How much bloodshed is necessary before they declare that enough is enough?

This violence is a blemish on our societal fabric, marked tragically by the blood of those sworn to protect us.

As the news out of Charlotte continues to get worse please take a moment to pray for our Fallen and injured Brothers & Sisters, their families and their friends. Charlotte, The State of Maryland is with you.

🚨 Enough is Enough 🚨

Today, our hearts are heavy as we learn of multiple law enforcement officers shot in east Charlotte. This violence against those sworn to protect us must STOP.

We stand with our officers and against the senseless violence that endangers them and our communities. It's time for action, for support, and for unity.

Join us in saying NO MORE to attacks on our protectors. 🙏💙

Your State Executive Board hard at work with FOP Leaders from across the State at our Quarterly State Board Meeting.

Fixing the injustice done to our retirees was our top priority this legislative session. We were minutes away from accomplishing our goal. "Rather than Backing the Blue, Delegate Kathy Szeliga decided to Back the Bus over the Blue."

Heroes in Action!

🚨 In addition to our hero Maryland Transportation Authority Police Officers, who stopped traffic from getting up onto the bridge prior to the collapse, the MDTA Police Marine Unit also saved lives that day. 🌉 Their swift action made all the difference as they were the FIRST emergency vessel on scene that night, rescuing the sole survivor from the water in record time! 🏅🚔 Massive kudos to these brave officers for their rapid response and dedication to saving lives. 🙏

There are times when a photograph says it all. Proud of our members who have worked tirelessly to assist with this tragedy and help bring closure to those involved.

Unfortunately day 2 at the Key Bridge has transitioned from rescue to recovery for our brave members on the front lines. We pray for the families and coworkers of those presumed lost as well as our Brothers & Sisters working around the clock to investigate and bring closure.
