As part of ICOPs commitment to our members, we are defending your rights wherever they are attacked. Recently, we took that battle to the court of public opinion. A decision last month by the City of Chicago to violate their officer's rights to arbitration prompted us to speak out in defense of arbitration for Police Officers.

Today is a new day for the Village of Robbins police officers as the Illinois Council of police signs off on a new agreement drastically increasing wages and conditions of employment for police officers, sergeants and commanders.
