The Los Angeles Police Protective League is all over this November's ballot, taking on a third issue before voters.

It already has come out against Proposition 5, the measure expanding drug diversion programs, and on behalf of state Sen Mark Ridley-Thomas, D-Los Angeles, for county supervisors. On Monday, it was announced they are backing the Proposition 6 proposal advanced by state Sen. George Runner, R-Palmdale, with a radio commercial.

"Californians are fed up with gangs," said League President Tim Sands. "Proposition 6, also known as The Safe Neighborhoods Act, is a comprehensive anti-gang and crime reduction measure that will bring more cops and increased safety to California communities and greater efficiency and accountability to public safety programs and agencies that spend taxpayer money.

"The LAPPL urges voters to support the Safe Neighborhoods Act just like they supported Three Strikes and other critical law enforcement reforms. The safety of our communities is critical to all of us," added Sands.

In backing the measure, the union is going against the Los Angeles City Council, which voted to oppose the measure.
