The Virginia Sheriffs Association on Thursday presented Virginia House of Delegates Speaker William J. Howell (R-Stafford) with the 2015 Outstanding Legislative Service Award. The award was presented to Speaker Howell by Stafford County Sheriff Charles Jett at the 2015 Sheriffs’ Association spring conference in Roanoke.
“I am honored to be recognized by the Sheriffs’ Association and grateful for all that they do as part of Virginia’s law enforcement and public safety community. It’s an even greater privilege to be presented this award by Sheriff Jett, a man whom I respect and admire greatly,” said Howell.Â
“All across Virginia, sheriffs and their deputies work to keep our neighborhoods and communities safe. In the General Assembly, I have worked to provide them with the tools and resources they need to complete their mission. I am proud of what we’ve been able to do, including this year’s work to fund a pay raise and salary compression adjustment for our deputies. Thank you to the Sheriffs’ Association for this tremendous honor.”
