Congressman Tim Walberg announced that he will be taking a local Chief of Police to the state of the union address this evening. Walberg selected Cambridge Township Chief of Police Jeff Paterson to join him at the event.
Chief Paterson is a lifelong resident of Lenawee County and a Tecumseh High School graduate. He spent 29 years with the Lenawee County Sheriff’s Office before joining the Cambridge Township Police Department in 2015.
Congressman Walberg said, “Chief Paterson has dedicated a lifetime to serving our country and community-both in the military and in law enforcement. Each day, members of law enforcement work long hours and late nights to keep our communities safe. These officers, like Chief Paterson, are on the front lines of a host of issues, including combating the opioid epidemic that touches every corner of our state.” Walberg went on to say that, “It is an honor to welcome Chief Paterson to our nation’s capital and recognize someone whose life mission has been to serve and protect.”
This will be President Trump’s first State of the Union Address since taking office.
