For Immediate Release SACRAMENTO – Captain Jim Cooper has been endorsed by the California Asian Peace Officers PAC (CAPO PAC) in his bid to become the next Sheriff of Sacramento County in 2010. "The California Asian Peace Officers PAC is pleased to endorse you for Sacramento County Sheriff," wrote CAPO President Captain Trang To and Officer Randy Kajioka, Vice President of Operations and Chair of the Endorsements Committee, in a letter to Cooper. "We were tremendously impressed by your commitment to strongly support public safety officers and programs in local government and we are honored to join other leadership in support of your candidacy." The California Asian Peace Officers PAC joins a long list of residents, community leaders, groups and law enforcement officers from Sacramento County, including former Sheriff Lou Blanas; the Sac-Sierra Building and Construction Trades Council, the Sacramento Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Sacramento County Supervisor Jimmie Yee and many others (see www.jimcooperforsheriff.com for complete list). "I am honored to have the support of the Asian Pacific American law enforcement officers," said Cooper. "I have made it my first priority to focus on public safety and the safety of those that protect Sacramento County residents and I look forward to working with the California Asian Peace Officers in the future." Cooper spent nine of his 25 years in law enforcement undercover taking down gangs and drug dealers and has been honored with a Bronze Star for Bravery. Currently, Cooper leads the High-Tech Crimes Task Force, cracking down on identity thieves and Internet predators that target children online. Cooper also serves as a founding Councilmember for the City of Elk Grove. Due to the Council's sound fiscal planning, Elk Grove has one of the largest surpluses in the region with $13 million in reserve. As Elk Grove's first Mayor, Cooper set the tone for how the City conducts business today, with accessibility, regional partnership and public engagement as the cornerstones for a successful government. ###
