About Us

The Southern States Police and Veterans Coalition, Inc. was formed in 2000 to assist police officers and veterans with claims relating to their law enforcement service and or their military service. Southern States Police and Veterans Coalition monitors legislation of importance to law enforcement and the military. The organization makes the voting records of our public officials available to our membership, other groups and the voters of the general public. We take stands on any issue effecting the public safety and homeland security. The Southern States Police and Veterans Coalition, Inc. Coalition through its voter guide program informs our members and the members of other organizations of which our membership is also affiliated with by virtue of the member's membership in these organizations. Southern States Police and Veterans Coalition is a non-partisan IRS 501(c) (5) organization. This designation does not allow for tax exempt contributions to the organization. The strong philosophy of the founding members is that no member or group of members shall be denied assistance for any reason. There is no board, committee or membership approval required to obtain help with your issue. Our premise is simple! "We are dealing with police officers and veterans, not procedures; with their problems, not ours". Except for the wording " police officers" This is a quote by Omar Bradley, Administrator of Veterans Affairs 1945-1947. The quote was provided by a senior VA representative and the Southern States Police and Veterans Coalition's leadership believes that General of the Army Omar Bradley's philosophy is the right attitude to have when serving the interests of police officers and military veterans. Assistance is provided to any member without cost. The only requirement to receive assistance is to be registered as a member. The Southern States Police and Veterans Coalition, Inc. does not dispense legal advice, except upon authority of our various pro bono legal counsels. If legal services are required and in most instances they are not required, the member is directed to an attorney for further assistance.

Our Officers and Board members and the general membership may also hold membership in other police and veterans organizations. However, G-COPS. org and Southern States Police and Veterans Coalition do not necessarily express the views of any other police and or veterans organization listed on our website nor do the views and positions on issues taken by other police and veterans groups reflect our views and or position on a particular issue. However, we will when we deem it to be beneficial to the law enforcement and military communities support other groups on an issue.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to hold our elected officials accountable for their actions and our target is Georgia's highest ranking elected official - Saxby Chambliss. Be sure to vote early or for sure on Tuesday DEC 2nd. The stakes are high on Tuesday December 2nd. Saxby has consistently voted against the interests of hard-working, middle-class Georgians during his time in the Senate.  He has voted against the interests of peace officers and veterans. He voted against HR 980 giving peace officers due process rights. Saxby voted against providing funding for body armor for our men and women serving in Iraq. His votes have caused real damage to our community, to our families, and most importantly to our children. It is crucial that we make the right choice and send JIM MARTIN to the U.S. Senate fight for for police officers and veterans. Veterans should not under any circumstance vote for a politician who evaded the draft five times to keep from going to Vietnam. As a USA 1st Lieutenant Jim Martin answered the nation's call to serve. Also veterans should never forget the despicable ad that Shameless Chamblis ran against triple amputee Max Cleland in 2002. Senator Max Cleland like Jim Martin answered the nation's call to duty. Senator John McCain and Vietnam POW called Saxby's ad against Max Cleland "despicable.
