“During the height of those difficult times… many officers felt that no one was in their corner. That no one was speaking up for them. That no one cared,” President Yoes reflected. “But nothing could be further from the truth.”
The FOP stood tall when it mattered most—defending our profession in the halls of Congress, the courtroom, and the media. If you felt alone during those years, know this: you never were.

Happy 110th Birthday to the Fraternal Order of Police!
On this day in 1915, the Fraternal Order of Police was born—founded by brave officers in Pittsburgh who believed law enforcement deserved a voice, a brotherhood, and a seat at the table.
110 years later, we’re proud to stand as the world’s largest organization of sworn law enforcement officers, fighting every day for the men and women who protect and serve.
From better working conditions to stronger communities, from the streets to the Hill—we’ve never stopped backing the badge.
Here’s to 110 years of unity, service, and strength.
Here’s to the next chapter.
