Dear Friend,


More cops were recently targeted for assassination and shot, this time in New York. I appreciate how the NY police unions and Republican leaders, including President Trump, are calling out the anti-police policies and rhetoric of liberal Democrat politicians and their voters.
Sadly, much of the increased disrespect and aggressive actions towards law enforcement can be traced to President Obama and Ferguson, at least that is what officers tell me, repeatedly.
 
Please respect the lawful commands of our police and thank them for their service.
 
City of Waseca policeman, Arik Matson, was recently shot and gravely wounded by a drug dealer. Fortunately, Officer Matson is out of I.C.U. and slowly improving. We continue to pray for Arik, all law enforcement officers and their families.
 
To the men and women in blue: We appreciate you and we have your backs!
With respect,
