Police unions endorse Republican in 26th State Senate race

Republican Kim Healy, who is running for the 26th State Senate District seat has been endorsed by all of the police unions in the district.  She is looking to unseat freshman Democratic Senator Will Haskell in the district which includes parts of Bethel, Redding, Ridgefield and Weston.  Haskell voted for the police accountability bill, which has prompted speculation about mass police retirements when it takes effect.  Healy says the bill doesn't remove bad officers from the job nor provide extra training for good officers.  She opposes the section which prohibits consent searches during traffic stops, which Healy says has been an essential tool in removing firearms from the streets.  She says touting gun control efforts while at the same time eliminating law enforcement's ability to remove illegal weapons is short-sighted at best.
