The Fraternal Order of Police Pennsylvania State Lodge re-elected Pine Valley resident Joseph Regan, a retired Lower Merion Township Police Department patrolman, to serve another term as president. Regan and a slate of officers were sworn in by the National Fraternal Order of Police President Patrick Yoes and will serve two-year terms. The election concluded the PA FOP’s conference in Gettysburg.
“Having the opportunity to serve another term as Pennsylvania’s FOP State Lodge president is a true honor,” Regan said. “I am eager to work with our excellent leadership team and continue to improve the law enforcement profession to protect both those who serve and the public.”
