The National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) is a national membership organization that represents sworn law enforcement officers in the United States, providing collective advocacy, training, member services, legal assistance, and public-policy advocacy aimed at supporting officer safety, professional standards, and the interests of police personnel.
Advocates for public-safety and criminal-justice policies that support law enforcement funding and resources, officer safety and benefits, collective bargaining and labor protections, legal and disciplinary protections for officers, law-and-order initiatives, training standards and community-policing programs; typically opposes proposals it views as defunding, broadly limiting, or criminally exposing officers.
Primarily funded by member dues and fees, donations and fundraising, training and conference revenues, insurance/benefit program income, and political contributions through affiliated PACs and supporters.
State and local FOP lodges, the Fraternal Order of Police Political Action Committee (FOP PAC), the National FOP Foundation and other allied law-enforcement fraternal and advocacy groups.
