The DC Police Union blamed local government policies for soaring crime rates and a decline in public safety in an ad campaign launched Wednesday.
“The Police Union sought one legislative goal: protect the rights of police officers to collectively bargain like all unions in the public and private sectors. Labor officials from local unions stood with us. Mendelson and Allen ignored our pleas,” Greggory Pemberton, chairman of the DC Police Union said in a statement shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation.
“This week, the District lost another child to gunfire,” said Pemberton. “Enough is enough.”
The union attacked two city councilmen for cutting police funding and ignoring public safety experts amid a mass exodus of D.C. police officers in the thirty-second ad, which will run on television and in digital media.
