To the editor:

Sullivan County Sheriff Mike Schiff has been a steady figure in Sullivan County Government. His leadership led to a modern county jail, successfully transferring operations & inmates from the old, antiquated facility, navigating Sullivan County through the COVID pandemic, and the foresight to protect children in their schools. Sheriff Schiff recognizes the need to do more with less, and that budgets demand what is have to have, not nice to have. 

Sheriff Schiff has made and continues to make strides in the changing landscape of law enforcement. Without equivocation, Sheriff Mike Schiff is the only candidate with the experience, vision, and comprehensive plans to lead the Sullivan County Sheriffs Office.

As Past President of the New York State Sheriff’s Association and the longest serving Sheriff in the history of Orange County, NY, I am proud to give my endorsement to Sullivan County Sheriff Michael Schiff for Re-Election in the Republican Primary Tuesday, June 24.
