San Diego Asian Americans for Equality (SDAAFE) strongly endorses John Hemmerling for San Diego County Sheriff. As\u00a0Sheriff<\/strong>, Hemmerling will be tough on crime and a leader in criminal justice reform. He will restore confidence, competence and transparency in the department and institute needed reforms starting on day one.<\/p>\n

\u201cDue to the recent multiple Anti-Asian incidents, public safety and security have become the most pressing and imminent issues of concern for our Asian-American community,\u201d stated Joan Chen, Ph.D, President of San Diego Asian Americans for Equality. \u201cAs Sheriff, John Hemmerling is committed to opening and maintaining a direct line of communication with the Asian American community as he strives to reduce violence and hate crimes in San Diego County. SDAAFE is proud to endorse Hemmerling for Sheriff.\u201d<\/p>\n

San Diegans deserve safety, honesty and transparency. Hemmerling will align the department\u2019s priorities with the concerns of every community \u2014 providing direct communication and a direct channel to oversight boards and the public when visibility is paramount. When the people see that their sheriff is committed to transparency, trust and collaboration are sure to follow.

\u201cI am honored to have the support of San Diego Asian Americans for Equality in my race for San Diego County Sheriff,\u201d said John Hemmerling. \u201cSDAAFE has worked diligently to advocate for Asian Americans across the state, and I am eager to advance our shared values to safeguard our neighborhoods, including households, schools and businesses, as your Sheriff.\u201d
