“I’m honored to have Sheriff Bianco’s endorsement and the support of so many law enforcement leaders. They all tell me the same thing — Sacramento makes it harder to keep our communities safe. I’ll fight to change that and make sure those who protect us get the support they deserve,” said Dom Belza.
