The FOP represents 111 Local
Lodges from various Police organizations throughout the Commonwealth
of
Pennsylvania. We value the opinion our local lodge officers provide as
constituents from their respective
areas. The committee can provide
assistance with locating all the lodges in your district that may also
require your appearance at a meeting.
The FOP will not usually issue an
endorsement prior to filing deadlines, however, early endorsement
requests
will be considered.
Once the Committee has completed
its evaluation, a recommendation is submitted to the FOP’s
Executive Board
for consideration and approval.
All efforts will be made to notify
candidates of a decision as soon as possible following action by our
Board.
Such notification is made in writing, on official FOP-PA letterhead and
signed by the FOP’s President.
The FOP reserves the right to
withdraw its endorsement at any time and/or modify this procedure for any
reason and without prior notice.
