Smith and other county officials at the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office in Fultonville for a roundtable discussion on issues faced by law enforcement officers and to thank 911 dispatchers for their work in keeping communities safe.

"Congresswoman Elise Stefanik has consistently shown unwavering support, exemplary leadership, and remarkable accessibility. Her dedication to our community and law enforcement is invaluable. On behalf of the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, we extend our deepest gratitude for her steadfast commitment," said Sheriff Jeffery T. Smith.
