National Police Association Joins Attorney General’s Victims Summit

Led by Attorney General Todd Blanche, the summit brought survivors and national officials together to examine the consequences of recent immigration and criminal release policies. Kenniff, representing the NPA, described the testimonies of 'Angel Families' as harrowing evidence of government failure, noting that the accounts centered on the deep-seated anguish of those who feel abandoned by existing safety measures.

Beyond the emotional weight of the gathering, the discourse shifted toward the structural challenges facing police officers. Kenniff engaged with FBI Director Kash Patel and White House Border Czar Tom Homan, emphasizing that public safety depends on shielding officers from politically motivated prosecutions. The NPA specifically highlighted the case of former NYPD officer Omar Habib as a cautionary example of how current legal environments can penalize law-abiding police work. The summit concluded with a pledge to prioritize victim advocacy while ensuring that enforcement agencies receive the backing required to effectively curb violent crime.
