@HistoPol so the police got a detective elected to state house. First or second active cop in history elected to a state house.
He immediately got a bill introduced creating the statewide LEOBOR to insulate cops from CRBs.
Maryland passed a similar bill at the same time. I need to explore more how they influenced each other (probably via police fraternal orga that were antecedent to their CBA units that started around then).
