Kingsport Coalition of Police,
I.U.P.A. Local 168
” To protect our Police Officers rights at all costs, backed by the Premier Law Enforcement Labor Union in the Country, I.U.P.A. “
About Us
The Kingsport Coalition of Police was formed many years ago due to the unfair labor practices being handed down by City Government. Since then, many cases of unfair labor have been resolved/won by our members. We have gone so far as to overturn unjust firings. Any Kingsport Police Officer working today, is foolish working without the backing of the Kingsport Coalition of Police and I.U.P.A.
