This Police Week The Choice is Clear - Police Endorsed Candidate Dave Min or Career Criminal Scott “Defund the Police” Baugh

IRVINE, CA — In recognition of Police Week, California State Senator Dave Min celebrates the dedication and service of local law enforcement officers. A long-term ally of law enforcement, Dave started his career at the Securities and Exchange Committee as an Enforcement Attorney, collaborating with the FBI to prosecute financial fraud, and as a State Senator, he has staunchly supported police by authoring bills on retail theft, public transit safety, and domestic violence support, and securing $1 million for local police funding. 

"Police Week is a time to recognize the sacrifices made by our law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line every day to keep our communities safe," said Senator Min. "I’m proud to be able to say I’ve spent my career fighting for law enforcement, whether it was prosecuting Wall Street criminals at the SEC or as a State Senator standing with police. My career and legislative record stand in stark contrast to my opponent Scott Baugh, a career criminal who tried to defund the police when he was Chair of the Orange County Republican Party and who supports a $17 billion cut to federal police funding. Unlike Scott Baugh, I’m proud to stand with police officers and I’m honored to have their support in this race.”

Min is the clear choice of Law Enforcement in the CA-47 Congressional race. Min is proudly endorsed by:

Min’s strong public safety record, and support from law enforcement stands in stark contrast to disgraced lobbyist Scott Baugh, whose criminal and anti-police actions extend to both his personal and professional life.
