Editor,
To the shady political groups who are falsely claiming Governor Bullock is anything other than a strong ally to our law enforcement – you clearly haven’t been doing your research.
Bullock has even publicly said that he does not support defunding the police multiple times. Dirty political ads or people who claim otherwise are just trying to drum up fear where there shouldn’t be any.
When Bullock served as Attorney General, his job required close collaboration with the local law enforcement to keep our streets and communities safe. And while serving as governor, Bullock continued to work alongside our law enforcement, passing bills and providing the funding they needed to secure life-saving equipment both for officers and civilians.
I am a retired Yellowstone Park Ranger with 18 years of law enforcement experience. During my tenure, we worked closely with local, county, state and other federal law enforcement officers in Montana. At no time did I hear that they felt unappreciated or unsupported by their superiors or administrators.
It is very unfortunate that recently our law enforcement community has become a political football. They have a very difficult job to do, sometimes mistakes are made and occasionally we have a bad officer, but spreading disinformation and promoting fear about the level of support they have just makes their job more difficult.
Let’s send Governor Bullock to Washington to bring some Montana common sense to the Senate. Join me in voting for Governor Bullock for the U.S Senate in November.
