The Florida Police Chiefs Association (FPCA) endorsed Gov. Ron DeSantis for president of the United States of America.
DeSantis currently stands in second place behind former President Donald Trump in polls looking at the Republican presidential nomination contest.
FPCA president Keith Touchberry said, “The Florida Police Chiefs Association is honored to fully endorse Governor DeSantis for President of the United States of America. From his commitment to safe communities and defending the rule of law, to his unwavering support for the profession of law enforcement through better pay and recruiting bonuses, Governor DeSantis backs the blue.”
“More than 2,265 people, both new recruits and current officers from other states, entered the law enforcement profession in Florida by accessing Governor DeSantis’s Florida Law Enforcement Recruitment Bonus Program. Governor DeSantis also led the effort during the 2023 session to fund a second round of recruitment bonuses and $110 million to provide one-time recognition bonuses for eligible local first responders,” the FPCA noted.
