PSOB Victory! {0}

NAPO Victory! Congress Passes PSOB Improvement Act Today, in a major victory for NAPO and public safety officers across the country, Congress unanimously passed the Public Safety Officers’ Benefits (PSOB) Improvement Act (S. 419), a bipartisan bill sponsored by Senators Charles Grassley (R-IA) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY). This Act will tackle the issues of transparency and the timeliness of case determinations within the PSOB program, and protect the ability of survivors, disabled officers and their families to get the benefits they so rightly deserve. Importantly, this Act will return the PSOB Program to a presumptive benefit and restore the “substantial weight” standard that requires PSOB to give substantial weight to the findings of federal, state, and local agencies as to the cause of the public safety officer’s death or disability. It will ensure that children of fallen or disabled public safety officers will still be eligible for education benefits if an adjudication delay causes them to age out of benefit eligibility before their claim is approved. It will increase transparency through weekly and quarterly public reports on the status of claims. The PSOB Improvement Act will significantly improve the PSOB Program and address several concerns NAPO has had with the program since the last major rulemaking in 2006 that implemented, among other changes, the Hometown Heroes Survivors Benefits Act of 2003. NAPO worked closely with Senators Grassley and Gillibrand on the development of this legislation after the Senate Judiciary Committee held an oversight hearing on the program in May of 2015 and after a scathing Justice Department Office of Inspector General Report in July of 2015. Both the hearing and the Inspector General report revealed that the PSOB Program had no accountability or transparency and there were extreme inefficiencies in the processing of claims, leading to a backlog of over 1,000 cases. This bill passed the Senate at the end of last Congress, but we ran out of time before we were able to move it through the House. After years of frustration with the PSOB Program, we are glad to see the enactment of this important legislation, which is a triumph for NAPO and rank-and-file officers across the nation. It is a priority for NAPO that we ensure the PSOB Program is processing and deciding claims in a timely manner and that the process is transparent and straightforward for those who have lost their loved ones or have become seriously disabled in the line of duty. The passage of the PSOB Improvement Act is a major step in the right direction and we will continue to work as part of the PSOB stakeholder community to hold the Program accountable. NAPO thanks Senators Grassley and Gillibrand for being our champions on this important issue.

FYI! SB-0223, As Passed Senate, March 23, 2017

Please take the time to read this Legislation that affects Michigan Law Enforcement that passed the Michigan Senate on Thursday, March 23, 2017.

We will keep you informed of the progress of this legislation.

DPLSA

SUBSTITUTE FOR SENATE BILL NO. 223

A bill to require the creation and maintenance of certain law

enforcement officer personnel records; to prescribe the information

that may be contained in the personnel records; to permit law

enforcement officers to review the personnel records; and to

provide for immunity from civil liability to law enforcement

agencies in certain circumstances.

 

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:

 

Sec. 1. This act shall be known and may be cited as the “law

 

enforcement officer separation of service record act”.

 

Sec. 2. As used in this act:

 

(a) “Commission” means the Michigan commission on law

 

enforcement standards created in section 3 of the Michigan

 

commission on law enforcement standards act, 1965 PA 203, MCL

 

28.603.

 

(b) “Former employing law enforcement agency” means a law

 


enforcement agency in this state that was the employer of, or that

 

issued an oath of office to, a law enforcement officer licensed

 

under the Michigan commission on law enforcement standards act,

 

1965 PA 203, MCL 28.601 to 28.615, and that was required to

 

maintain an employment history record for that law enforcement

 

officer under the Michigan commission on law enforcement standards

 

act, 1965 PA 203, MCL 28.601 to 28.615.

 

Sec. 3. (1) In addition to the employment history record

 

required to be maintained under the Michigan commission on law

 

enforcement standards act, 1965 PA 203, MCL 28.601 to 28.615, by a

 

law enforcement agency for each officer it employs or for each

 

officer to whom the chief of police of a village, city, or township

 

or county sheriff has administered an oath of office, a law

 

enforcement agency shall maintain a record regarding the reason or

 

reasons for, and circumstances surrounding, a separation of service

 

for each law enforcement officer for whom the law enforcement

 

agency is required to maintain an employment history record under

 

the Michigan commission on law enforcement standards act, 1965 PA

 

203, MCL 28.601 to 28.615, who subsequently separates from the law

 

enforcement agency or from his or her employment as a law

 

enforcement officer requiring the administration of an oath of

 

office under section 9c or 9d of the Michigan commission on law

 

enforcement standards act, 1965 PA 203, MCL 28.609c and 28.609d.

 

(2) The law enforcement agency shall allow a separating law

 

enforcement officer to review a record prepared under subsection

 

(1) upon the request of the separating officer.

 

(3) If a separating law enforcement officer disagrees with the


accuracy of the contents of the record prepared under subsection

 

(1), he or she may request the correction or removal of the portion

 

of the record he or she believes is incorrect. If the law

 

enforcement agency and the separating law enforcement officer

 

cannot reach an agreement on the contents of the record prepared

 

under subsection (1), the separating law enforcement officer may

 

submit a written statement explaining the separating law

 

enforcement officer’s position and the basis for his or her

 

disagreement. If a separating law enforcement officer submits a

 

written statement under this subsection, it must be kept with the

 

record required under subsection (1) and provided with the rest of

 

the contents of the record as required under section 5.

 

Sec. 5. (1) A law enforcement officer who is licensed or who

 

was previously licensed or certified under the Michigan commission

 

on law enforcement standards act, 1965 PA 203, MCL 28.601 to

 

28.615, and was previously employed as a law enforcement officer in

 

this state, who separates from his or her employing law enforcement

 

agency or from employment as a law enforcement officer to whom an

 

oath of office has been administered under section 9c or 9d of the

 

Michigan commission on law enforcement standards act, MCL 28.609c

 

and 28.609d, and who subsequently seeks to become reemployed as a

 

law enforcement officer in this state, shall provide to the

 

prospective employing law enforcement agency, upon offer of

 

employment, a signed waiver. A waiver executed under this

 

subsection must expressly allow the prospective employing law

 

enforcement agency to contact the law enforcement officer’s former

 

employing law enforcement agency or agencies and seek a copy of the


record regarding the reason or reasons for, and circumstances

 

surrounding, his or her separation of service created by his or her

 

former employing law enforcement agency or agencies under section

 

3.

 

(2) A waiver under subsection (1) must be executed on a form

 

provided by the commission to all law enforcement agencies in this

 

state that employ or administer oaths of office to law enforcement

 

officers licensed under the Michigan commission on law enforcement

 

standards act, 1965 PA 203, MCL 28.601 to 28.615. The prospective

 

employing law enforcement agency is responsible for providing the

 

waiver executed under subsection (1) to the former employing law

 

enforcement agency or agencies.

 

(3) Upon receipt of the waiver executed under subsection (1),

 

a former employing law enforcement agency shall provide, along with

 

other information required or allowed to be provided by law, a copy

 

of the record required under section 3 to the prospective employing

 

law enforcement agency.

 

(4) A prospective employing law enforcement agency shall not

 

hire a law enforcement officer to whom subsection (1) applies

 

unless the prospective employing law enforcement agency receives

 

the record created under section 3 from the law enforcement

 

officer’s former employing law enforcement agency or agencies.

 

(5) A former employing law enforcement agency that discloses

 

information under this section in good faith after receipt of a

 

waiver executed under subsection (1) is immune from civil liability

 

for the disclosure. A former employing law enforcement agency is

 

presumed to be acting in good faith at the time of a disclosure


under this section unless a preponderance of the evidence

 

establishes 1 or more of the following:

 

(a) That the former employing law enforcement agency knew that

 

the information disclosed was false or misleading.

 

(b) That the former employing law enforcement agency disclosed

 

the information with a reckless disregard for the truth.

 

(c) That the disclosure was specifically prohibited by a state

 

or federal statute.

Dr. Oz’s Ultimate Supplement Checklist
Dr. Oz sheds light on one of the most confusing health issues: What vitamins you should be taking daily. Find out what 4 supplements he takes every day and why you should too.

If you’ve ever stood paralyzed in the vitamin aisle, facing the alphabet soup of supplements, fear no more. This is Dr. Oz’s Ultimate Supplement Checklist. Learn what to take, why your body needs it and the proper dose.
A Multivitamin
A study of 3 million people revealed that less than 1% of the participants got enough essential vitamins from diet alone. That’s why you must take a multivitamin; it also helps prevent heart disease, breast cancer and colon cancer.

The Dose
Look for 100% of the daily value of the 12 essential vitamins and minerals – like vitamins B, C, E and zinc. Note: Only women who are menstruating need a multivitamin with iron. If you are post-menopausal or a male, you do not need a multivitamin that contains iron.
More is not better – avoid “mega-doses.” You only need 100% daily value, not 500%.
Take half in the morning and half at night to maximize absorption. You use a multivitamin’s various components during the chemical reactions that occur throughout your body. So, maintaining constant levels assures a steady supply of these vital nutrients
The Calcium Cocktail
Calcium is a necessary supplement for strong, healthy muscles, bones and teeth. You need to take it in combination with magnesium (to prevent the negative side effects of calcium) and vitamin D (to help the body absorb calcium) in order to get the maxium benefit.

The Dose
Calcium (600 mg) with magnesium (400 mg) and vitamin D (1,000 IU)
Take dose with a full glass of water, 2 hours after eating. Calcium can block the absorption of other supplements and prescriptions, so be sure to take it separately.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and is integral the health of your immune system, blood vessels, muscles and nervous systems. Most of us don’t get enough vitamin D from sunlight, especially if you live in a northern climate or are dark-skinned. Vitamin D may also play a role in preventing certain cancers, including colon, uterine, breast and endometrial cancers.
The Dose
1,000 IU – this dose can be included in multi-vitamins, so make sure you read labels carefully.
Vitamin D is fat soluble, so it works better when taken with a little fat. Try taking it at breakfast with milk or yogurt.
Fish Oil
Fish oil contains omega-3 fatty acids called DHA and EPA which are essential for optimal functioning of the heart and brain. They reduce arterial inflammation, which can lower your risk for a heart attack. Fish oil is also associated with a 32% reduced risk of breast cancer. While a controversial report this year indicated that fish oil supplements could be dangerous due to possible trace amounts of mercury and/or PCBs (cancer-causing chemicals found in fish swimming in polluted waters), this small amount is not enough to be a concern. Click here for guidelines on buying fish oil with the necessary levels of DHA and EPA.

The Dose
Your daily dose must contain 600 mgs of the DHA omega-3 fatty acid.
Take fish oil with breakfast to avoid “fishy burps,” a side-effect some report when fish oil is taken on an empty stomach.
Many fish oils recommended refrigeration to keep them from spoiling. Check the label carefully.
Baby Aspirin
Though technically not a supplement, baby aspirin can help prevent heart attacks and it can reduce the chance of stroke. Recent studies suggest an added benefit: aspirin has been linked to the prevention of almost every cancer.

The Dose
Take 2 baby aspirin daily.
Consult your doctor before starting a daily aspirin regimen.

City of Detroit Benefits Survey {0}

Last week we informed you that the City of Detroit was going to forward you a survey regarding the 2018 Health Care Enrollment. The survey is more restrictive than we believed it would be because we believe there should be more concerns addressed in the survey.
 
The DPLSA is working towards more affordable options for our membership with lower co-pays, co-insurance and deductibles along with more health care concerns covered. We are also seeking enhancement to our current prescription coverage. We also want our members to be able to seek treatment wherever they choose and we support wellness options.
 
Ultimately we want Health Care plans that matter for our membership because they deserve it for their families and themselves!
 
I have attached the link for the survey, please take the time to review and address your concerns, thank you, take care of each other and stay safe!

Detroit Red Wings and Law Enforcement Team Up for the Final Law Enforcement Appreciation Night at Joe Louis Arena

Detroit Red Wings v. Los Angeles Kings, Joe Louis Arena, on Thursday, December 15, 2016

WASHINGTON DC—The Detroit Red Wings have joined the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund to host their final Law Enforcement Appreciation Night at Joe Louis Arena on Thursday, December 15, 2016, at 7:30 pm. For the sixth year in a row, this special night will honor the service and sacrifice of law enforcement officers, correctional officers, their families and the communities they serve while raising awareness and funds for the National Law Enforcement Museum, currently under construction in Washington, DC, and scheduled to open in 2018.

The game’s opening ceremony will be dedicated to honoring Michigan officers killed in the line of duty this year, including Wayne State University Police Department Officer Collin Rose, Berrien County (MI) Sheriff’s Department Court Security Officer Ronald Kienzle, Berrien County (MI) Sheriff’s Department Court Security Supervisor Joe Zangaro, Detroit (MI) Police Department Sergeant Kenneth Steil and Officer Myron Jarrett.

The Macomb County (MI) Sheriff’s Department Honor Guard will present the colors for the National Anthem during the evening’s opening ceremony.

“We’re excited to welcome more than 1,100 police officers and their families from throughout the state of Michigan to the Red Wings game on Thursday to thank them for their service,” said Rick Fenton, Vice President of Corporate Security for Ilitch Holdings, Inc. “With proceeds benefitting the [National] Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, we look forward to raising money and paying respect to officers who continue to put their lives on the line to protect our communities.”

During the game, the Detroit Red Wings coaching staff will be supporting law enforcement by wearing special-edition National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund lapel pins.

“This is a memorable night as we honor Michigan law enforcement officers at ‘The Joe,’” said Craig W. Floyd, President & CEO of the Memorial Fund. “Many years of great hockey games have taken place on the ice at the JOE, including six law enforcement appreciation events. We look forward to our continued partnership with the Detroit Red Wings and are excited to honor law enforcement in the new Little Caesars Arena next year.”

The Detroit Red Wings are offering a special all-inclusive Law Enforcement Appreciation Night package starting at just $47 for the general public, law enforcement officers and their families. The package

includes a ticket to the game and a Detroit Red Wings Farewell Law Enforcement Patch. Additionally, the Detroit Red Wings will donate $10 from each ticket sold directly to the Memorial Fund in support of the National Law Enforcement Museum.
