New National Group for Police Leaders Endorses Kamala Harris for President

The group, Police Leaders for Community Safety, was created in 2024, and describes itself as an organization that represents dozens of police officials. Monday, chairwoman Sue Riseling expressed the organization's support for Harris.

A group of national law enforcement leaders have endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris weeks after the National Fraternal Order of Police backed former President Donald Trump.

The group, Police Leaders for Community Safety, was created in 2024, and describes itself as an organization that represents dozens of police officials, USA Today reports. In a press release Monday, chairwoman Sue Riseling expressed the organization's support for Harris.

“This endorsement reflects Vice President Harris’ track record and unwavering commitment to public safety and the rule of law,” Riseling said. “As police leaders who have led law enforcement agencies and the major national law enforcement leadership groups, we know first-hand what it will take to make our communities safer – and that includes having Kamala Harris as our next president.”

The majority of the members in the group's national advisory board and its board of directors are former law enforcement leaders. Among them is chairwoman Sue Riseling, the former chief of the University of Wisconsin-Madison Police.

Other members of the group's leadership include David Mahoney, retired Dane County, Wisconsin sheriff and past president of the National Sheriffs’ Association, and Cynthia Herriott, former chief of the Rochester Police Department.
