I’m Pete Coolidge and I am running for Sheriff. When I saw what is happening across the country and right here in DuPage County, I knew I had to step up. We can’t afford to wait.

​

Everyone who lives or works in DuPage County deserves to feel safe and respected by law enforcement that acts professionally and with compassion.

 

The trust people once held by the badge has been deeply shaken—look at the national pain of George Floyd or the local reality where neighbors fear calling 911 due to ICE concerns. People don’t trust the police; they are suspicious and afraid of police.

 

It doesn’t have to be this way. I am running to restore the people’s trust in the Sheriff’s office.  We can restore integrity, mandate accountability, and ensure fairness is the standard, not the exception. It's time to rebuild trust, officer by officer, neighbor by neighbor.
