Last Friday Congressman Bill Posey received an endorsement from the Coastal Florida Police Benevolent Association (CFPBA).

“I am honored to have the support of the Central Florida PBA and its members,” Posey said. “The men and women of the Space Coast’s highway patrol units, county sheriff’s offices and city police forces keep our streets safe and make our area a more inviting place to live, work and visit. I’m proud to stand with our law enforcement community and will continue to fight to provide them with the resources and support they need to keep our neighborhoods safe.”

Below is the full text of the Coastal Florida PBA’s letter announcing their endorsement of Bill’s campaign:
