Our thoughts and prayers are with our Brothers and Sisters to the south. Today a member of the Miami Dade Sheriff's Office's Kendall District was tragically killed in the line of duty.

Today we reflect upon the loss of Deputy Tony Yanniello, who was murdered while responding to a domestic disturbance in 1984. Upon Dep. Yaniello's arrival, a suspect fired at him with a rifle before embarking on a 10-hour standoff. Ultimately, the SWAT team was forced to enter the residence where they were met with gunfire and forced to kill the suspect.

Deputy Yanniello had served with the Broward County Sheriff's Office for two years. He is survived by his parents, son, daughter, three brothers, and one sister. May he rest in peace.

I am very proud of the collective bargaining agreement that I signed with Sheriff Gregory Tony yesterday on behalf of the 1,500 deputies and sergeants in the certified bargaining unit that we represent through The Broward Deputy Sheriffs Association, IUPA Local 6020. The agreement represents the largest pay increases in over 30 years for deputies and sergeants within the Broward Sheriff's Office. The union team you see in the group photo on the left negotiated with the Sheriff and his management team to make this a reality. Much-needed raises will be coming soon to our members. We greatly appreciate Sheriff Tony’s efforts regarding this matter. We don’t always agree, but on this matter we are in lockstep. We are confident that it's coming and just a matter of time. It's no longer if, it's now when.We will stay involved in that process and keep you posted.

Yours Fraternally,

Dan Rakofsky
President
