Wisconsin Fraternal Order of Police President Ryan Windorff said: “We believe that Brad Schimel possesses the qualities and experience necessary to carry out this important responsibility. During his time as Wisconsin’s Attorney General, Brad Schimel demonstrated a deep understanding of the law and a commitment to public safety. He has worked tirelessly to protect our citizens from crime, support law enforcement agencies and enhance the effectiveness of our judicial system.”
“Today, we call on our fellow citizens to support Brad Schimel in his campaign for Wisconsin Supreme Court. Your voice matters…Together, let us work toward a future where justice is upheld and every member of our community feels safe and secure. A strong Supreme Court Justice like Brad Schimel will pave the way for law enforcement officers to protect and serve effectively. We look forward to seeing a brighter future in Wisconsin under Brad Schimel’s leadership as a Supreme Court justice.”
Judge Brad Schimel said: “Over 80 current and retired sheriffs are publicly endorsing my campaign. Three quarters of the current sitting elected sheriffs in Wisconsin are publicly endorsing my campaign, and that means there are Democrat sheriffs who are supporting this. I have bipartisan support, and I’m proud of that, and I’m proud to have the support of the law enforcement officers that are members of the Fraternal Order of Police.”
“The things they witness are not easy, and I am proud of each of them when they go back out on another shift to do it again every day, and I’m so proud and grateful to have their support here today.”
