Attended the 2019 MADD Law Enforcement Recognition Breakfast this morning. Over 100 officers from the region were recognized for their DUI enforcement efforts, including our own Officers Grewal and Schafer. Great job, guys!

Thanks to Elk Grove News for the podcast opportunity yesterday. I had a great time!

I strongly encourage any interested Elk Grove residents or business owners to consider this opportunity to help shape our community policing efforts. We are in need of 1 new member to fill a vacancy on the CAB. Think about joining us! #community

Yesterday, we celebrated the 25th anniversary of our Volunteers in Police Serivce (VIPS) program by presenting the volunteers with these special challenge coins to commemorate the occasion. We could not be more thankful for their service to the community!

Our thoughts are with the Sacramento PD officer who was shot this evening and we stand ready to assist Sacramento Police Department in any way necessary as they navigate this tragic situation.

Yet another tragic loss of a peace officer who gave her life serving the community she was sworn to protect. Our thoughts and prayers are with Officer O'Sullivan's family, friends and Sacramento Police Department family. Rest in peace, Tara. #Hero

I enjoyed spending time with students in the Young Assembly Member program sponsored by @AsmJimCooper yesterday. They asked great questions and are very engaged young citizens. The future is bright!
