Sheriff calls for legislative session to 'fix' police reform laws

The Washington State Sheriffs’ association is asking the Governor to convene a special session this year.

They say this can’t wait until the next legislative session that begins in January, as time is of the essence.

They say they are already making difficult decisions under new laws they believe are seriously flawed

Since the new police reform laws took effect in July, law enforcement has been saying their hands are tied. Now the 39 elected sheriffs in Washington state say the legislature needs to go back into session to correct them.
