[Alameda County CTA] Email Supervisor Lena Tam requesting hiring more sheriffs to process CCWs
Hey all,
BLUF: Email Lena Tam's office at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) or [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) encouraging more ACSO headcount to speed up the CCW permit process. Template format in comments.
AC Supervisor Lena Tam sent out a newsletter recently. She's in office until 2027 (so no pre-election pressure unfortunately) and I looked around on her page and part of her safety plan involves "hiring more law enforcement personnel". https://www.lenatam.com/publicsafetyplan
An email campaign asking her to expedite CCW processing has a good chance at yielding results for a few reasons:
- She campaigned and won a close election under the banner of increasing law enforcement head-count (so it's something she'd already be inclined to do)
- Hiring more sheriffs to process CCWs is a subtle 2A-win that is very unlikely to result in a political backlash
- There is a backlog of over 1,500 applicants, which is loosely enough voters to have swung the last election. https://ballotpedia.org/Lena_Tam
Email the office and let's try to get some movement!! Please be polite, professional, and find something to express appreciation for in your email!
