Niles, MI - On Tuesday, Republican State Senator Kim LaSata announced the endorsement of all seven County Sheriffs and Prosecutors in her run for re-election in the 17th Senate District.
“I have been steadfast in my support of our police, fire and other first responders who risk their lives every day to protect us. While they keep our community and neighborhoods safe, I’ve got their backs and will work to give them the resources they need to do their jobs and return safely home to their families. I’m proud to have the support of our Sheriffs.” LaSata said.
LaSata is also receiving widespread support from all seven County Prosecutors serving in the
17th Senate District.
“Fighting violent crime, supporting victims, and respecting our constitution reflect our shared values and principles, and I appreciate the hard work of our local Prosecutors. I will continue to be a strong advocate for law and order.” LaSata said.
“Over the last few months, I have traveled throughout the 17th District, meeting old and new
friends. With the support our campaign gains every day it is clear that Southern Michigan wants to keep a bold, conservative, and pro-law enforcement voice in the State Senate.” LaSata said.
