Our mission is to promote and develop a friendly and fraternal spirit among all Suffolk County PBA Members.
We advance the general welfare, safety, and efficiency of our members and aid them upon necessity or emergency. At the same time, we endeavor to promote an excellent relationship between our members and the communities they serve. We highlight PBA members’ work; we recognize their heroic actions, and we educate the public regarding the sacrifices police officers make each day.
We ensure that our members are treated fairly, by providing them with excellent representation, safeguarding their rights under collective bargaining and the United States Constitution.
The Suffolk PBA promotes legislation and government actions beneficial to the interests, safety, and well-being of our members and their families and we oppose legislation and government actions detrimental to those interests.
We strive to keep Suffolk County a safe and thriving place to live and work by aiding our members in their vocation as Suffolk County Police Officers.

New York State has passed a law, sponsored by Senator Monica Martinez, offering a 50% property tax reduction for surviving spouses of fallen police officers. Implementation is optional for local municipalities.
Below is an updated list of counties, cities, towns, and villages, along with their current status in the process. We also encourage spouses to contact their local school districts to ensure they are aware of the program and can opt in.
Please note that the NYS taxable status date is March 2nd, so action should be taken by then unless an extension is granted.
