Thank you to the men and women who protect and serve

This weekend I was in San Diego for my duty in the U.S. Navy Reserve and coincidentally the Los Angeles Police Protective League was also in town for its delegates meeting. During a lunch break, I dropped by to thank the rank and file officers who protect and serve our communities every day. I will continue to work to ensure that our police department has the resources it needs to keep our neighborhoods safe, and most importantly it means that our officers have the training, equipment, and motivation needed to do their jobs well.
