CSLEA Attends Annual Reception For State Lawmakers

Posted on January 13, 2016

SACRAMENTO – A new legislative session has just begun at the State Capitol and the Governor has introduced his proposed budget.  What better time to meet and greet California’s new and veteran assemblymembers and senators?  That’s the thought behind the Annual Legislative Reception hosted by the California Coalition of Law Enforcement Associations (CCLEA) in partnership with the California Contract Cities Association.  The annual reception was held at the Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel on January 12, 2016.
