New England PBA Vermont State Director Sean R. McArdle stated; “These two Police Departments are the utmost professionals and their decision to join with a professional all law enforcement organization like New England PBA is obviously the right choice for both these departments. I look forward to working with these dedicated law enforcement professionals.” McArdle continued “I am proud of our organizing team and our continued record of accomplishment in the Green Mountain State. Yet, our continued growth in Vermont is predicated on our ability to deliver quality contracts and by continuing to provide the stellar legal services for all those we represent, including the Vergennes Police Benevolent Association and the Lyndon Police Association.”

New England PBA Executive Vice President Tom Daly called the election, “a great day for the hard working and dedicated members in Lyndon and Vergennes Police Departments, they both clearly want to be represented by a law enforcement union who respects and understands the needs of police officers.”
