| Desc | Our social media enjoys average volumes of nearly 4 million people on Twitter each week. We have a post reach of 6 million on Facebook each week, of which some 20 percent are actively engaged with the content - which includes sharing with their own networks. The number of chapters grew from 860 to 950. The Thin Blue Line website continues to expand our readership into a representation of nearly all federal and state law enforcement agencies. We continued to have significant success at the state level for textbook reform, including the continued removal of inaccurate textbooks and working directly with the publishers to improve new editions of textbooks, with large progress noted in the State of Texas. | Desc |
