Retired Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb has officially earned the endorsement of the Maricopa County Colleges Police Officers Association in Arizona's 5th Congressional District race.

The endorsement comes from the men and women responsible for helping protect students, faculty, staff, and visitors across the Maricopa County Community College District, one of the largest community college systems in the nation.

Rising concerns over crime, the fentanyl crisis, border security, and support for first responders continue to shape conversations across the state.

The Maricopa County Colleges Police Officers Association's endorsement recognizes a lifetime dedicated to public service and a proven record of leadership under pressure.

As Sheriff of Pinal County, Lamb became known nationally for his work on border security, public safety initiatives, and defending the constitutional rights of Arizona citizens. His experience on the front lines gives him a unique perspective that few candidates can match.
