WEST SACRAMENTO, CA — Retired firefighter, small business owner, and longtime community leader Dave Jans has officially earned the endorsement of the West Sacramento Police Officers Association (WSPOA) in his campaign for City Council.

The endorsement highlights Jans’ lifelong commitment to public safety, his deep roots in the city, and his proven track record of active community involvement. Having lived and raised his family in West Sacramento for nearly 25 years, Jans brings an essential, practical perspective to local governance, combining his career as an emergency responder with decades of civic engagement and business leadership.

“Dave Jans is the kind of dedicated, community first leader we need representing West Sacramento,” said Travis Hudelson, WSPOA President. “As a retired firefighter, Dave understands the realities of emergency response and the critical role public safety plays in maintaining strong neighborhoods. But just as importantly, Dave has spent decades deeply involved in our community, volunteering, supporting local initiatives, and building real relationships across the city. He knows what our residents need, and we are confident he will work tirelessly to keep West Sacramento safe, vibrant, and strong.”

For Jans, public safety and civic involvement have always gone hand in hand. His platform centers on fostering strong partnerships between law enforcement, local neighborhoods, and small businesses to ensure West Sacramento remains a secure and thriving place for all families.

“Earning the backing of our local police officers is a tremendous honor,” said Dave Jans. “Public safety is the cornerstone of any great community. When our law enforcement officers, firefighters, local business owners, and residents work together toward common goals, our entire city benefits. As someone who has spent a lifetime in public service and decades serving this community, I look forward to bringing people together on the City Council to tackle our challenges head on.”

The endorsement from the West Sacramento Police Officers Association adds significant momentum to Jans’ campaign, expanding a broad and growing coalition of support.
