(MINEOLA, N.Y.) - On Wednesday, Jan. 18, 2023, the membership of the Nassau County Police Benevolent Association (PBA) voted to approve a proposed contract spanning Jan. 1, 2018 to June 30, 2026. The contract must be approved by the Nassau County Legislature and signed into law by the County Executive for it to take effect.
Following this week’s action, Nassau County Legislature Minority Leader Kevan M. Abrahams (D - Freeport) issued the following statement:
“Police officers are often confronted with danger and put themselves in harm’s way as they fulfill their oath to serve and protect the public in Nassau County and across the nation,” Nassau County Legislature Minority Leader Kevan M. Abrahams (D - Freeport) said. “As demonstrated when we proposed funding 110 additional officers in this year's budget to enhance foot patrols and create a dedicated hate crimes unit, the Minority Caucus remains steadfast in our commitment to supporting Nassau's law enforcement professionals. We look forward to closely reviewing the proposed contract once it is submitted to the Legislature for approval.”
