Los Angeles Police Choose Councilmember John Lee for LA’s Twelfth District.
Â
San Fernando Valley, CA - Today, Councilmember John Lee’s re-election campaign announced earning the endorsement of The Los Angeles Police Protective League (LAPPL). The LAPPL, representing nearly 10,000 uniformed Los Angeles Police Officers, cited Councilmember Lee’s unwavering advocacy for public safety and strong commitment to combating crime in announcing their support.
"The Los Angeles Police Protective League proudly supports Councilmember John Lee's re-election. Councilmember Lee is the only candidate you can count on to do what it takes to keep neighborhoods safe, fight crime, and build a healthier and safer city for everyone," said Craig Lally, President Los Angeles Police Protective League
Among the City Council, Lee is well established as one of the Council’s strongest public safety and law enforcement advocates. During his first term, Lee secured vital funding to fund multiple LAPD divisions in the Twelfth District, helped establish a multi-year plan to address the rise of illegal street races, and championed a groundbreaking ordinance to combat catalytic converter theft.
The LAPPL is the latest high-profile organization to back Councilmember Lee’s re-election. They join SEIU 721, County Supervisor Kathryn Barger, business leaders, labor unions, and scores of community leaders. Â
Councilmember John Lee was first elected to represent District 12 in 2019 and again to a full term in 2020. Please visit councilmemberjohnlee.com for more information
