A group of sheriffs praised Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Monday for his role in helping reverse an Obama-era ban on transferring military hardware – including armored vehicles – to police departments around the country.

Jonathan Thompson, the executive director of the National Sheriffs Association, referenced the new policy in telling fellow law officers: "You have a friend who is listening, who is doing exactly what law enforcement has wanted for years."
