International Brotherhood of Police Officers

The International Brotherhood of Police Officers (IBPO) is a union for law enforcement personnel, under the umbrella of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). In the Free Spirits series, the IBPO represents the officers and civilian employees of the Stallbrook Police Department, not to mention personnel in the county jail. Originally, Stallbrook police were represented by a union lodge of the Fraternal Order of Police, but as the FOP lodge's "Old Guard" came into conflict with Chief Graham and the Stallbrook Police United for Reform, officers soon resigned from the FOP and joined the IBPO, until an official vote gave the Brotherhood the right to represent Department staff. Members of the Stallbrook local have petitioned the union to change its name, replacing "Brotherhood" to the gender-neutral "Association" to recognize women and genderqueer members.
