PBA statement on new Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch

PBA President Patrick Hendry said:

“Through the numerous recent changes in the NYPD’s leadership, the challenges confronting police officers on the street have remained the same. We are critically understaffed, massively overworked and completely unsupported by a justice system and an oversight regime that care more about punishing cops than helping us get dangerous criminals off the streets. We hope to partner with Commissioner Tisch to make real progress on these issues as quickly as possible. The future of the NYPD and the entire city depends on it.”
