Congressman Pence Continues American Security Task Force Listening Tour with Police Chief Roundtable

Columbus, IN - Congressman Pence met with chiefs of police from across Indiana’s Sixth District for a listening session to continue his American Security Task Force Tour.

This roundtable is a continuation in a series of events Congressman Pence is set to hold throughout the Sixth District during August district work period – including Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) members, chiefs of police, prosecutors and other members of the law enforcement community.

Last month, Congressman Pence was named by Leader Kevin McCarthy to the American Security Task Force.

“As I continue to meet with members of the law enforcement community, whether it’s the sheriff from a small county like Switzerland County, or police chiefs from large cities like Columbus and Muncie, I hear the same issues reiterated: morale is low, retention is down, and hiring is nearly impossible,” said Congressman Greg Pence. “Thank you to the police chiefs for taking the time to sit down with me for a very informative meeting, and I look forward to bringing their feedback to D.C.”

Police Chiefs in Attendance:

Columbus Police Chief Mike Richardson

Greensburg Police Chief Mike McNealy

Madison Police Chief John Wallace 

Muncie Police Chief Nathan Sloan

Muncie Police Deputy Chief Melissa Pease

Richmond Police Chief Michael Britt

Congressman Greg Pence represents Indiana’s 6th District. From Columbus, Indiana, Pence advocates for conservative Hoosier values as a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
