Message from MNPEA business agent Mike Golen

This is a repost:


It is with a very somber heart that I make this report. Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney returned the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) candidate response form on Friday. He said that he didn't believe that Police, Corrections and Essential Services should have the right to work under contracts. FOP President Gary Cayo and I spoke yesterday and there is a growing mood of discontent with the direction The Republican Party has taken both Nationally and State by State. The Conservative Values that many of us grew up with and hold dear no longer seem to be the values of The Republican Party. I urge you to get involved with your local caucus whether you're a Republican or a Democrat. This is not an Endorsement, it is a Call To Arms. To Work In Law Enforcement Umbrella Jobs Without A Contract and Due Process Would Be A Disaster. Both for the staff and the public we serve. A Government that turns against it's soldiers is a Ship Of Fools. WE are the Patriots. WE are the Front Line Army. This message is from me, Mike Golen, Director of MNPEA and is intended as my personal opinion. All MNPEA Members are encouraged to speak their own mind. Their opinions are respected regardless of my opinion, other Board Member's opinions or the opinions of other members.
