About Us

Since 1984, the Illinois FOP Labor Council has provided support to our members in the law enforcement field throughout the state of Illinois. Our proven record of success has made us a leader in the law enforcement labor field.

Our Mission

Our mission statement is "Protecting those who protect us." We will unite all of our members into one strong union that adapts to a world where anti-union sentiment is on the rise. We will speak in one voice for our members.

Our Plan

Educate and work with the public to win resources for services that make communities safer. Find every opportunity for members to take leadership positions in their communities and keep our values strong in the years to come.

Our Vision

We will educate the public and our members. We will fight for reasonable compensation and benefits. We will not tolerate carelessness or neglect, and we will be accountable for what we do. We will never compromise our responsibilities.
