I have your back



I have said that many times and meant it every time.  I know you have said it, too.  Now, it is time to put those words into action by voting in this FOP presidential election.   With negotiations for a new contract coming up and contract violations by the City to be challenged, we must look out for our own best interests.  I urge you to vote for Kevin W. Graham for FOP President.  Kevin is experienced and has supported many of our fellow officers as a unit representative and as First Vice President of the state lodge.  I will personally endorse Kevin because he has had my back in good times and in difficult times.  Likewise, Kevin will support you in good times and in bad.

We have to support him now, in order for that to happen.  Now it's time to show that you have the backs of your fellow officers, both retired and active, by voting.  Your vote will show the Mayor, the aldermen, and the higher-ups that you are active and interested in your future and in our contract negotiations. It will show them that we stand united and strong.  And, with Kevin Graham as our president, we will be a force to reckon with.  I know we have the support of the majority of the public; we must also be sure we have strong support from our President.  Please send in your ballot and vote for Kevin W. Graham.

I love you and I have your back!
