"I am a Pennsylvania State Trooper, A Soldier of the Law. To me is entrusted the Honor of the Force. I must serve honestly, faithfully, and, if need be, lay down my life as others have done before me, rather than swerve from the path of duty. It is my duty to obey the law and enforce it without any consideration of class, color, creed, or condition. It is also my duty to be of service to anyone who may be in danger or distress, and at all times so conduct myself that the Honor of the Force may be upheld."

Luckily the PA legislature is controlled by Republicans. The Governor’s wish list will stay just that.

I think that police unions should do much more to clear out the bad cops who have multiple complaints. Instead they protect them so that they cannot be fired.

“Pa. state troopers’ union slams Gov. Wolf’s law enforcement reforms..”

And will endorse the Democrat Wolf in the next election...by the way.

“It is my duty to obey the law and enforce it..”

Any law no matter what?

Any young person that looks to a career in law enforcement now is crazy. Police departments have had recruiting difficulties for years. Now, it will only get worse.
