Huber Recognized as Outstanding Legislator by State Sheriffs

The California State Sheriffs’ Association has recognized Assemblymember Alyson Huber as an Outstanding Legislator of 2009. Sacramento County Sheriff John McGinness met with Huber to deliver the award and express the Association’s appreciation for her support of law enforcement.

“The Sheriffs of California are very pleased to present this award to Assemblymember Huber," McGinness said. “Even as our economic times become more critical, she has been very clear that public safety is a top priority.”

During her first year Huber authored AB 640 that would treat methamphetamine dealers the same as cocaine, heroin and PCP dealers, as well as a bill AB 870 to add razor blades and box cutters to the list of prohibited weapons on school campuses.

“I am honored to be recognized by the State Sheriffs Association,” Huber said. “It has been a pleasure working with the dedicated law enforcement representatives in my district. I look forward to continuing to work together to improve the safety of our communities.”
