TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Gadsden County Sheriff, Morris A. Young, endorsed U.S. Rep. Al Lawson on Wednesday, who is running for re-election for Florida's 5th Congressional District.
“I am happy to receive the endorsement from Sheriff Young,” Lawson said. “He knows my commitment to this district and to the safety of our residents.”
Last month, Lawson received the endorsement of Jacksonville’s Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), which represents more than 3,000 active and retired law-enforcement officers.
"Congressman Lawson has been dedicated to North Florida for a number of years," Young said. "I have watched him grow as a state representative, state senator and, now, congressman. I am proud to know him. He is doing a great job in Washington."
