BURIEN — State and local law enforcement leaders joined Gov. Jay Inslee last week to announce a proposed expansion of the Criminal Justice Training Committee, creating regional training campuses to help agencies respond to a national officer shortage.'As we heard from law enforcement today, this effort to fund more training and establish new training locations will not only help with the number of officers, but will also help the recruitment of officers that better reflect the communities in which they work,' Inslee stated.
