Loebsack helped Henry County gain police computers

Keeping the families and the Henry County community safe is my priority as sheriff of Henry County.
I would like to publicly thank Congressman Dave Loebsack and his staff in assisting my office in acquiring a grant through COPS Law Enforcement Technology & Interoperability.
As a result, the Henry County Sheriff's Department purchased onboard computers and necessary computer software, for each patrol car. The computers have been an excellent and useful tool for the deputies as they are able to accomplish so many tasks from their patrol cars immediately and in a timely manner.
Congressman Loebsack and his staff were also critically involved in helping Henry County secure the former U.S. Army Reserve Building in Mount Pleasant, which now houses Henry County Emergency Management.
Congressman Loebsack and his staff have been very supportive of law enforcement in Henry County.
