Securing the safety of the Bergen County community is the main mission of #BCPONJ, but this security planning is not always visible to the public eye. For example, preparations for hosting international sporting events in our area are underway, and funding proposed by Congressman Josh Gottheimer will address the danger of undetectable guns and ghost guns.
