EXCLUSIVE: The head of one of the nation’s top law enforcement organizations is urging President Biden to strike a “positive” tone on policing during his upcoming State of the Union address to show support for the men and women risking their lives for the community as the profession deals with recruitment and retainment issues.
Larry Cosme, president of the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association (FLEOA), told Fox News Digital he met with Attorney General Merrick Garland for a law enforcement roundtable Thursday. Other groups represented there were the Fraternal Order of Police, the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the Major Cities Chiefs Association and the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives.
Cosme called the more than 2½-hour meeting productive.
“I appreciate the open communication that Attorney General Garland has led with his team, his senior leadership team. I think it’s productive,” said Cosme.
