Truly an honor for SPOC to present Iowa Concerns of Police Survivors with a donation of $2500 in honor of Deputy Burbridge. Thanks to the troopers of Districts 3 and 4, ISTA, Iowa Park Rangers, and SPOC for donating. Thank you Iowa COPS for all the work you do to support law enforcement.

While the public should recognize the bravery, courage, honor and integrity shown by our nation’s law enforcement officers every day, there is one day each year set aside to show how much we value their service and protection of our communities. Let an officer know if you see one.

Thank you District 11 Honor Guard members for representing tonight. "Honor to be a part of laying a brother in brown to rest!! RIP X397!" Sgt. Trainor.

Help Trooper Anderson with his project in the Fort Dodge area. “He came up with the idea to challenge troopers across the state to donate blood,” Miller said. “He’s a technical accident investigator, so he sees a lot of accidents and the need for a lot of blood.” It is open to the public, details in the article.

Congratulations to some of our Iowa State Troopers and the other recipients for being recognized for their uses of AED and CPR by Des Moines Firefighters. "Quick use of an AED and Bystander CPR helped make a difference! Take the time to learn CPR And know how to use a defibrillator. These folks helped save a co-workers life!"

We would like to thank the men and women of the State Police Officers Council and all of our public safety partners that worked over the Holiday Weekend.

SPOC recently donated to a great cause, COPS AGAINST CANCER. It is an honor to assist them with their future plans. #copsagainstcancer copsagainstcancer.org

HF 574 will be discussed in a House subcommittee today - ask your legislators to support hunting and fishing fee modernization for a safer and improved natural habitat.

Troubling trend lines - as trooper numbers have decreased, there have been 17,600 fewer speed citations issued than four years ago, 6,617 more crashes than four years ago and 54 more deaths than just two years ago.

As legislators face tough budget decisions, we must remember that there is one trooper on the road today for every 8,426 drivers compared to one trooper for every 6,333 drivers seven years ago. As licensed drivers have increased, trooper numbers have gone down. We need more troopers on the road, not less, to keep Iowans safe.

Ask your legislators to support HF574, which will allow for an increase in hunting and fishing fees to provide revenue for the many conservation, safety and preservation services enjoyed by hunters and anglers.

Happy St. Patrick's Day - please celebrate responsibly

Ask your legislators to support House File 510, a bill that allows the Iowa DNR to set market rate prices for state park camping and other amenities. This will help our state parks be competitive in the marketplace, attract visitors and be cleaner and safer.

Did you know – there were 1.7 million licensed drivers in 1970, compared to 2.2 million today? But there are fewer troopers on the road to patrol and keep Iowa’s roads safe.

Did you know – there were more troopers on the road in 1970 than today? While trooper numbers have declined steadily, the number of registered vehicles increased exponentially.

What problem is legislature trying to fix? SPOC is the lowest cost insurance pool in the state - members contribute 20% to their health insurance premiums and often voluntarily forgo wages in exchange for insurance benefits.

SPOC is not only the lowest cost family plan for State employees, but also had a 0% rate increase last year while all other groups averaged a 10% increase. #StandWithIowaOfficers

Thank you to Great Southern Bank for the generous donation to the families of fallen officers Tony Beminio & Justin Martin. #StandWithIowaOfficers

SPOC costs the state the least in insurance premiums. Switching to a statewide pool would inevitably cost the Department of Public Safety more for insurance premiums, which is money that would be better spent putting troopers on the road. #StandWithIowaOfficers

Similar to many private sector plans, SPOC members voluntarily contribute 20% to their health insurance plans. #StandWithIowaOfficers

Please stay safe on Iowa's icy roads. If you do find yourself in trouble, we will get to you as quickly as possible, but help us out by staying off the roads if you can.

Did you know – SPOC and the State have successfully negotiated every contract together the last 18 years? #StandWithIowaOfficers

Did you know – Troopers have to spend an additional 40,000 hours annually on other assignments and their time patrolling the highways has decreased by 6,000 hours annually? #StandWithIowaOfficers

The collaborative process laid out in Chapter 20 has served Iowa well for more than 40 years. There is no need for dramatic changes to a law that is achieving exactly what it was intended to do. #StandWithIowaOfficers

Negotiations under Iowa Code Chapter 20 almost always end with voluntary agreement between the parties. In rare cases where a dispute is submitted to arbitration, the rules are designed to require that the most reasonable proposal wins, based upon criteria specified in the law. SPOC has reached voluntary agreements with the State 14 times out of 19. #StandWithIowaOfficers
