President Trump Backs the Blue, Harris Lets the People of Albuquerque Down

Today, President Donald J. Trump received the endorsement of the Albuquerque Police Officers’ Association because our communities were undoubtedly safer under President Trump.

Dangerously liberal Kamala Harris has let the people of Albuquerque down with her failed policies as “Border Czar” and capitulation to violent criminals. Harris supports eliminating cash bail and ending mandatory minimum sentences, and she has praised the “defund the police” movement, saying the movement “rightly” called out the amount of money spent on police departments instead of community services. Under her failed leadership, murders in Albuquerque are up 24 percent this year compared to the same period in 2019, and fentanyl deaths in Albuquerque rose nearly 58 percent between 2020 and 2021 as Harris loosened restrictions at the southern border.

President Trump has always backed the blue – working to restore the rule of law, forge new partnerships with state and local law enforcement agencies, provide support for police officers, and adopt aggressive strategies for ending gang and drug-related violence. The Albuquerque Police Officers’ Association joins dozens of law enforcement organizations, including the National Fraternal Order of Police, National Association of Police Organizations, Arizona Police Association, Milwaukee Police Association, Las Vegas Police Protective Association, and Police Officers Association of Michigan, in supporting President Trump’s campaign to Make America Safe Again.

“President Trump has consistently shown unwavering support for our police officers, advocating for policies that protect and empower those who serve on the front lines. His commitment to law and order, coupled with his dedication to funding law enforcement initiatives, has provided our officers with the tools and resources necessary to serve and protect…We believe that President Trump’s proven track record and strong leadership make him the best candidate to address the challenges facing our nation.” – Shaun Willoughby, President, Albuquerque Police Officers’ Association
