Benefits of the
Lodge #50 currently represents over 800 law enforcement professionals in the KC Metropolitan Area.
By being a member, you receive a united voice from law enforcement members in the metropolitan area. We are growing as the Fraternal Order of Police in West Central Missouri and will continue to grow in the next few years. There is and has always been strength in unity and we have and will continue to unite in this metropolitan area.
When you join the F.O.P., you are joining more than 330,000 law enforcement professionals across the United States, 5,500 in the State of Missouri and over 2,500 members in the metropolitan area. You are joining an organization dedicated to the welfare of the Law Enforcement member and the cause of law enforcement. And it is organized and run by fellow law enforcement members, people who understand what you are contending with and what you need to do an extremely important job.
You need STRONG representation for Collective Bargaining. The Missouri Supreme Court has guaranteed your right to collective bargaining. Do you have a contract to protect officers in your department? Check with us and learn the benefits of bargaining.
Every group in this country that has been able to accomplish anything, has done so because they banded together, got themselves organized, and formed a strong advocacy group. Just think about that. There is strength in numbers. There is also accomplishment in sacrifice. You may have to invest some of your money, some of your time, and some of your abilities.
