Attached is a letter that was signed by members of the following Police Groups; Massachusetts Police Association (MPA), Massachusetts Fraternal Order of Police (MA FOP), Boston Police Superior Officer's Federation (BPSOF), New England Benevolent Police Association (NEPBA) and the MMPC.

The purpose of the letter is to show the State Reps and Senators that we are UNITED on several issues that are being discussed for so called reform at the State House (Quinn, GIC, Pension Reform).  The above mentioned groups have been consistent over the past two years as willing to work together to resolve these issues in a favorable manner.  Collectively they represent over 18,000 municipal police officers.

Unfortunately there are still a few groups that do not want to work as part of a team.  We hope that attitude changes quickly because we are going to need to work together to get through these tough times.

We thank you for your support.  Please remember that we are only as strong as our membership and there is "Strength in Unity"

Fraternally
